  8. Saab 9000 (1984 - 1998)
    .. at least I think that's what's happening. On my 1995 Aero, when accelerating hard(ish) (particularly in gears 3/4/5), it pulls unevenly, and I can hear the familiar hiss of the waste gate opening (or something that sounds like it) regularly every second (or a little less). From scanning...
  9. Saabscene: Performance
    I am just in the process of ordering a JT 3" system from Elk, and my WGA is stuffed, so I thought I'd take a look at the Forge ones, the problem is the three springs they offer (not to mention the pin size looking at previous posts) 5-10 9-15 and 14-18 psi, none of these seem strong enough as...

    I have a 1993 9000 Aero CS. It has been laid up for a couple of months and so the other day I decided to give it a run. It started with no problem and idled quite nicely. After letting it warm up for a while I took it out for a spin. Gentle at first until the temperature had come up to running...

    Hi all I was under the car at the weekend and noticed that the waste gate actuator rod is defying gravity by staying on the actuator arm in the absence of its' circlip (or at least, it is shown as a circlip in the parts catalogue for a 1993 aero). I just wondered if anyone knew the size of this...

    I have noticed that there is a small deposit of soot to the side of the rubber pipe comming from the plastic waste gate. As the car has only covered 17k . Should I be asking for a new pipe, a valve or a cloth?
  18. Classic Saab 900 (1979 - 1993)
    Stripped the exhaust nuckle of the turbo last night and yes the valve was wedged open but more importantly has come adrift from the lever arm. Has any one seen this before? Also the APC is cutting in at 3500RPM every gear (Light bulb i have in parallel is flickering). I stripped the dizzy and...
