A failed experiment by Saab to only let the transmission send the oil through the cooler when hot.
it was only installed in 87-88 and they removed it on the 89 model.
Whenever that thermostat starts to leak (and they do) I remove it completly and run new hoses from the transmission to the cooler using bulk hose and two clamps in each end per hose.
I use 3/8" trans/engine oil hoses.
That way it is easy to replace the hoses next time they go bad (and they will if you own the car long enough).
