OK SAAB guys. I know this is off topic, but I have a friend with an '03 Olds Alero 2.2L Ecotec engine that occasionally won't start for her; and I know the newer SAABS use variations of this engine. I took a look at it, and cleaned up the spark plugs, regapped them, and cleaned out some of the exorbitant amount of dielectric grease somebody put into the DI cassette. The problem is I couldn't get the problem to replicate when I had the car, so I have no idea what to look for. She says every once in a while the engine just won't start and she'll have to play with it for 10-15 minutes before it finally does. Also, temperature/humidity does not seem to affect the ability to start. Any suggestions on what I can should look at will be appreciated. THANKS.
