Some years ago, my smooth and flawless running '89 SPG just died in the street, and would not restart. In my simple mind I suspected fuel pump. Flatbed transfer to my local general imports shop, not a Saab specialist.
Fuel pump replaced - no response. Next, ECU replaced - no response. Next
ECU relays replaced - no soap. Tech finally did some tests at distributor and determined faulty Hall sensor. That replaced did the trick and all has been well since. The puzzle: Tech claimed they had to find another used distributor to match the new sensor. Is this a good answer? Have you been there too? Are their config variables between 16 valve turbo years with regard to distributor and Hall sensor fitment?
How long does a typical Hall sensor last? How do they fail?
Many thanks amigos !!
