Depends on your VIN.
The FPRs don't seem to wear out, but some don't work after the fuel filter is replaced. Reason has been unknown. Speculation was dirt getting into the line going to the engine and lack of cleanliness buy whoever does the work. Then Swedecar/Anders came up with the observation that the OEM rubber coated sealing washers at the fuel filter could be resonsible for this as the rubber can shed as things are taken apart. I expect that when taken apart, in most cases, fuel dribbling out of that line should backwash such stuff out.
P/N 9483538 was used on VIN 1219477 and onwards.
I would use the VIN to know and record what part, then do the filter only. Then replace if you subsequently have starting problems.
Part Number 9483538
Description FUELPRESREGULATR
Saab Suggested List 27.00
Quantity package?

Superseded use this new number >click link 9118850

So the partnumber has changed once again.
If I had a suspect regulator, I would attempt to set it right by blowing out with shop air. But in a business, if I had the old one out and had parts to sell, I would install a new one.
