As far as I know all 2 and 2.3 engines are prone to sludge, whether in the Viggen or 9.5. Frequent oil changes, use of full synthetic and avoidance of short trips are the preventative measures.
The '99 Viggen has the weakest pistons and is most likely to have head bolt torque and gasket problems, or so my research on the forums would indicate.
