Full boost again!!!
Following Roman and AdamB's advice, I checked the wastegate rod. As they suggested, it had fallen off! I fitted it back on and (having lost whatever was supposed to secure it) I cunningly fashioned a pice of medium gauge wire which fits through the hole in the end of the rod.
I just took it up the Motorway (Freeway)and FLAME ON!
Although this is my third Saab (previously a 1996 900 XS 2.3 and a 1993 9000 CDE 2.3), this is my first Saab Turbo (1995 2.3 CSE FPT) and I am very impressed. It is so torquey it just pulls and pulls. I was doing 70 and came across middle lane man so I put my foot down to overtake, looked down at speedo a few seconds later and I'm pulling 120mph! This is probably very dull to all you turbo veterens, but I am thrilled with the car!
Many thanks to Roman, AdamB, Gavin and Noel for the advice, I am very grateful indeed!
If anyone on this BB are stuck for a part to borrow to check out theirs in the West London area, I will be more than happy to oblige.
Kind regards, Andy
