Most of us who have had experience with North American (steel oil pan) cars are used to giving the drain plug an extra snugging up - DON'T DO THIS ON THE SAAB'S PLUG - it only needs to be a little more than finger tight, use the tips of 2 fingers on the wrench when you tighten it up and remember to use a new brass washer every time. Once you get used to the Saab it becomes easier to work on and less a challenge. Have fun and rub some liquid dishwashing soap into your hands before you start working on the car and the grease will come off easier when you are done.
