86 SAAB 900I (noise, fuel system, paint)
Posted by Alain Delbarre (more from Alain Delbarre) on Fri, 3 Dec 1999 09:50:14
My car is a 86 SAAB 900I 8V with 280 000 Kms

Sonorous noises are coming from the hood (below?) when running at 2500-3000
rpm. I dont know whether it comes from torn engine mountings. Any idea
about checking this hypothesis?

I have no supply to the auxiliary air valve and warm up regulator that
gives high idle (1100 rpm) everytime, except when the engine is warm enough
(eg in traffic jam). The problem has been temporarily fixed by connecting
the valve and regulator to the ignition coil. I suspect broken wire or
failing connector. Does anybody know where the connectors are in the engine
bay ?

My car is Eduardo grey (body colour code 158). The repair told me he could
not find that reference. Does anybody know the composition of this paint ?

Many thanks
