Intermittent stalling

There have been several posts lately about intermittent stalling problems. The missus' 1999 9-5 with 90K caught the disease, and we just got it back from Hoffman Saab here in Connecticut. The engine control module was replaced. It was in the Hoffman shop for 2+ weeks. When they drove it, it didn't stall. When it stalled in the shop, it didn't show any code.
Hoffman persevered and eventually was able to diagnose the engine control module as the culprit. Total cost for diagnosis, parts, labor and CT sales tax was under $900.
Hoffman was resolute in making an accurate diagnosis and not just throwing new sensors in there. So it should be good for another 90K.
The symptoms were that the car stalled while running, but would start right up again. At times it would continue to run, but would have very little power. While being tested at Hoffman, it got worse and would stall and require a 15-minute wait to start up again.
Hope this is helpful to other Saabers with a similar problem.
