I currently drive an 85 and I've had one in the past. I'd gladly drive an 85 900 for many more years to come. I've never had a wire melt and it's not in the nature of this model year to have wires melt. The insulation does crumble away leading to shorts, but melting wires are not common, as far as I know and have experienced.
Sorry for getting defensive... the 85 900 is very dear to my heart and I understand and embrace the faults of the model year...
Other electral faults can occur in your car including failure of either of the two relays above your ECU which can prevent your car from starting. Every classic saab 900 model needs a periodic ground wire contact refreshment.
Nice work so far!! Stay logical and you'll isolate your problem.
