> I called a Saab shop and they wanted to charge me $170 (part price, not
>including labor) for this plastic tank!

Very common problem on CS-body cars. Extremely annoying and tedious
replacement procedure. If I was a mechanic, I'd charge two hours for the
job. The part price is unfortunately just about right. You might save some
about forty bucks by buying it mail-order from Kachina Cadillac
(800-955-1205). A junkyard part could be an option, but even the newest one
will already be more than 4 years old, which is about half of it's useable
life...
