FUEL OR IGNITION PROBLEM?

Need some help from the Saab owner community out there.
I have a 97 900S and just made the last payment on it and now it
started acting up. Here is the problem...
1. Vehicle will not maintain a constant idle and wants to stall.
Computer seems to prevent it from stalling though.
2. Getting very poor fuel mileage around town (22 mpg) and bad hesitation from a complete stop.
Here is what I've done thus far to repair the problem:
1. Replaced spark plugs, ignition wires, fuel filter, air filter,
distributor cap & rotor. That only seemed to make the problem worse.
2. Local ASE certified mechanic had vehicle for three days. Cleaned mass airflow sensor and throttle body. Hooked the vehicle up to the computer and got no codes (pending or hard). Still not fixed.
I'm at the end of my rope here before I take it to the dealer and pay the big dollars. Anybody else have similar problems? If so, I could truly use some advise. Thanks in advance.
Respectfully,
John Meili
