first if you have no A/C check and make sure your heater valve is hooked up.
I used this kit. Basically what you get is 2 valves and 3 cans of 134a and one hose with guage. Very easy to do. take off low end valve(looks like tire valve with colored plastic caps) replace with new one. take off high end valve replace with new one. fill system on the low end w/vehicle running. all you need is an adjustable wrench and about a 40 IQ.
If you have leaks it is most likely an o-ring in between two parts. you can get a new o-ring set for saab 900 on ebay. You look for a dark blackish greasy residue around the system that is your leak(or 1 of your leaks) where the oil is leaking, most times you can just tighten up the nuts w/e and it'll be fine. otherwise take the bolt or nut off, in between the pieces will be a crumbling or cracked o-ring and put new o-ring in. if you know what size ring it is you can get one from any hardware store. Try it if it doesn't work you will need a new drier. they are cheap less than 50$ if that doesn't work take it in and get a free estimate and buy replacement parts off ebay.
