Saab 900 hesitation/flat spot

Dec 16, 2004 1 Replies

Just bought a mint 1989 Saab 900S 16v which accelerates away very nicely up to about 2,800rpm-ish at which point it seems to go flat up to 4,000 rpm. Since I've not had a car with fuel injection before I'm slightly at a loss as to what it might be as there are no other problems - it starts well (hot and cold) and idles smoothly, just seems a little flat. If it's any use, it's fitted with Bosch LH 2.2 injection



Cheers, Jim


My first stop would be the ignition system. If you haven't already done so, replace the plugs, leads, cap and rotor arm.
