Techron only "works" if the overnight temp doesn't go too low...
Here in western NY State, we recently had a spate of overnight temps that dipped into the low 40's (F). Sure enough, my 2001 9-5 Aero did it's "Fall stumble" in the following mornings, taking 2 or 3 tries to catch and run normally.
Last night the overnight low was only 58F or so, and as expected, the Aero caught immediately without stumbling this morning.
Years ago the local Saab service manager said there was documentation on this problem - a service bulletin that as I remember was directed toward left coast Saab dealerships.
When the refiners are fully switched over to their winter fuel blend, the problem will vanish...as it does every year.
