Subject: need general advice on two 1986 900S problems


Hello I have a 1986 900S with a couple problems, and I'm soliciting some general advice on how to solve them. First since its summer is the A/C. Last summer, my first summer owning this car, I charged it myself and it worked great for a period of time and then died again. I assumed there was a leak and I'm planning on taking it to some people in a quonset hut on the edge of town. But these aren't "Saab people". Is there anything I should know about, any Saab-specific issues with getting the A/C going? Second is the front struts. I think this is pretty expensive to replace. Will it take more than replacing the struts to get the suspension back in shape. One mechanic told me this wasn't really even necessary if I didn't care about the comfort of the ride. Another mechanic told me it would greatly reduce my braking distance and should be done for safety reasons. I'm not going to replace the struts myself because I've heard it's dangerous if you don't know what you're doing. How should I go about finding the right shop to take it to? I live in Colorado in the Boulder area. Thanks for any suggestions. Dave
