car problems: 1. car cuts out when throttle is pushed "too hard" but runs fine otherwise. and i don't mean that i stomp on it either. 2. I smell rich fuel (i really don't know what that is suppose to mean) 3. the "cutting out" happens in every gear and when cold and hot. (never gets hot) 4. it seems that it MIGHT happen right when the turbo gauge hits yellow. it also seems as though i'm giving it too much gas and the injectors need to be flushed. (i had a toyota with that problem before) my problems: 1. don't know crap about Saabs, but since I bought this car (2 weeks ago for cheap) I am really excited about it. 2. i don't have much money. (hince the buying a car cheap deal) 3. i'm in no fashion a mechanic, only a internet tech. 4. don't know crap about saabs if any more info is needed I would be more than happy to get it. I have done some searching on the net and I have got 1 reply so far about it. the person seems to think that a hose to the throttle body needs checked. (any thoughts on that?) the reason i'm still looking is that i need as much input as possible because, like i said before, i don't have much money and i'm not a saab mechanic. thanks to all that may help, Ivan
