Hmmm. I assuming that you have done all the 'normal' checks on the engine - compression, ignition leads, plugs, AMM, 02 sensor, checked all the resistances on sensors, pulled all the codes and perhaps checked that the engine is not running lean/rich in spite of all of the above checks which may indicate OK (I'm in the process doing likewise at this time. Three things I might now check are:
a. You do not have a binding brake(s) (jack up each wheel and ensure that spins OK and that brakes release quickly on both normal and hand brake.
b. Your exhaust system is not blocked. This problem once drove me to distraction for weeks (not on a Saab) - turned out to be rust inside the muffler - changed the exhaust and all was OK.
c. You do not have fuel leak.
FWIW
