I have NEVER had a problem with Saab injectors in 25 years and 7 Saabs! I used to be a religious buyer of the cheapest no-name gas I could find. Now I use Arco mid-grade or premium (because it's cheapest around here, and the '82 tows the boat much better with the premium). Techron is a good product, but I don't think it's a _necessary_ product to use all the time. I can't help but believe some mfgrs just use cheap/defective injectors or fuel filters... -- John R.
