I am having a similar problem with my 89 900 GLE 16v, 200,097kms. sometimes its like yours, others it cuts out while driving along, sometimes it won't start from cold or hot ! mechanic is being driven nuts... changing the fuel pump relay this week as it definitely wasn't getting fuel the other morning. fuel pump is putting out the required fuel and flow. mechanic has had the entire engine electric's apart, checked the voltages, resistance etc of everything nd its al l fine. he said he is getting more of these strange problem with old fuel injected cars day by day. running it on premium unleaded has helped a bit, definitely smoother, more power, easier starting. who knows :) captmarvil <captmarvilnopsamcom> wrote in message <snip>I have a '94 Saab 900s with > 100,000 miles.
