If you're in the USA, stop by your local Checker or Autozone parts store, they'll read the codes for you for free. Rough running could be a lot of things, and getting some solid data is the right approach, rather than throwing parts at it. You can rule out the AMM by disconnecting the cable to it - does the car run better after you do? If it does, then the AMM is suspect. If it doesn't, I'd think more O2 sensor type ideas first. Or any of a number of other things. See what AutoZone or whomever can see for you. Obviously their motivation for reading the codes for you is that you'll buy the needed parts from them if they have them; it's a win-win. You get a diagnosis, they get a sale if they have the part in stock. If they don't, there's always thesaabsite.com for parts. Dave Hinz
