Get some stop leak in there Posted by turrbo [Email] (#8) [Profile/Gallery] (more from turrbo) on Mon, 24 May 2010 21:09:08 In Reply to: Re: Conv top stopped working, SteveM, Mon, 24 May 2010 12:10:26 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
At the recommendation of some folks here and on another Saab BB, I bought some Lucas Hydraulic Oil Booster and Stop Leak stuff online. I dumped some in last year and it didn't do much...so I dumped more in this year and my leaking cylinders seem to have sealed up....worth a shot and WAY cheaper than new hoses or cylinders.
One more thing...If you hear creaking when the fifth bow is moving up and down, it could be a bad 5th bow microswitch. They tend to get all bent out of shape and scrape against the top mechanism. If this happens, you'll get the error message and the top will stop.
