But yeah, I'm pretty sure I'll just pull the injectors & lay the whole thing aside, as you did. So...what were you up to that you were removing an engine from a 9-5? Any hints to share? I've got what I've done so far here: http://www.duck-creek.net/dave/saab/9-5/ - and I plan to turn it into a full how-to guide for whoever wants to use it. Any suggestions, hints, corrections, or "Hey dumbass, that sensor you call the 'on the end of the head' is actually the intake boost sensor" type comments are more than welcome. Dave
