OK! Bob. I had no warning, and having taken out the DIC I can tell you it's as clean as the proverbial whistle. The Saab service manager said bring it along to be tested,but I wonder if it's necessary ? There will be a charge knowing them from old. Bit of a brainer for me as the nearest dealer is about 20 miles away, and the one I favour is over 50 miles.Decision time looms. Just dashed out and bought an old Honda Prelude just to have some wheels,bus service in this neck of the woods( Devon UK) is pitiful. justsid "Bob" <uctraingNOSPAMnospamanet.com> wrote in message news:7ifn80t25092of2ffr44m3q5dgeb2rn466nospamcom... > On Sat, 24 Apr 2004 18:54:06 +0100, "justsid" > <sidcliffenospamFFsidcliffe.fsnet.co.uk> wrote: > > >Could you elaborate on:- > > "Make certain that the new cassette has been oriented with the spark > >plug terminals pointing downwards (as if it were installed on the > >vehicle), for app. 1/2 hour before starting the car" .
