I delayed in doing them on my 190D when they were merely seeping and then got
to do them when one fell off...
That one got held back on with a zip tie so I could make it home. All the
others were ready to fall off.

I did have a time with a couple of them on my 300D and 300CD. The 'cD
had
the worst ones which were TOTALLY dried out and broke into pieces at
the
slightest tug, of course, right at the barb! I picked at them gently
with a
knife which did the trick. There's no Diesel smell under the hood of
the
300SD, so she's good for now although I have enough line to do the job
when
the time comes.

Got to see the car today, quirky is just right.
I was surprised how peppy it felt for being such a small engine, of course the
whole car brings tiny to a new (small) level.
According to the folks on Saabnet I should be able to see 25mpg which is what I
was looking for, however this car is decidedly not.
Parking brake doesn't work (no big deal) and the underside appears to be
totally rotten (major big problem).
If it weren't for the major underside rust I might be interested. I still
might, its at a friend's place (not the seller's) and I may go back Wednesday
and give it another hard look. It could be what I thought was major rot is just
one bad rocker but I doubt it.
That and a column shift... Wow, I *thought* I knew how to work one of those...

Hi, Curt.
IF the car is truly rost frei and the transmission shifts properly,
the only other thing that might be needed is an exhaust. This is from
memory and CRS is creeping up on me. I've had 2 stroke and V4 96
sedans and a V4 95 wagon and a V4 97. You met Luke once and he has a
lot of very used Saab parts and 2 horrible 97's buried under his
firewood. OCD. I loved my 66 V4 96 silver engine and my 67 95 blue
engine cars. The 2 strokes were good esp. the Monte Carlo. Makes like
a Yamaha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha! (Sorry only 4 speed.).
No, I'm not nuts, it's just that I view the world from a slightly
different angle!
