Danny,
Best thing to do in that situation is remove the belt (cut it), drive carefully, (it takes some getting used to) and fix it when you can. DON'T put no stop-leak in it! NO, NO, NO! The most common leak is from a split feed hose (Saab part #9103201). It goes from the reservoir to the pump with a clamp on each end. If you jack up the car and get underneath you'll see it coming down and then making a 180 back up to the pump. Wipe it all clean and you'll probably see cracks and splits where it curves. It's easily replaced and cheap but I've only found it available from Saab parts suppliers like the site sponsors here. The other hoses are also available and the next most likely suspects for a leak.
