Oops it is the Mackay hose not Hutchinson.
And I found one of the discussions
http://www.saabnet.com/tsn/bb/9-5/index.html?bID=217713
any tips from people who have done the conversion?
I have been thinking about it and then yesterday the heater hose from the head sprung a leak from old age. I shortened it, but it is temporary because I had to cut off the molded flange where it increases in diameter. It was a struggle to get the resulting smaller hose back on so the repair is quite temporary.
When I started looking at the cost of that hose and some of the others in the bypass scenario, I decided the Mackay bypass bypass was a great idea!!
So I am taking the plunge.
