INTRODUCTION
This service campaign affects early 1985 model year Saab Turbos. The campaign consists of two separate modifications and owner notices. Manual
transmission equipped cars within the VIN Serial No. range must have the distributor rotor secured with Loctite to the distributor shaft.
Cars with automatic transmissions must have the distributor rotor secured with Loctite and certain cars must also be inspected for a possible defective oil
cooler line and improper routing of the automatic transmission cooler lines.
Purchasers of affected vehicles will receive a service campaign notice to inform them that they are eligible to have the above problems corrected at no
charge. Owner notices will be mailed once the supply of Loctite and primer has been shipped to the dealers (est.late-November). Any other parts such as
oil cooler lines must be ordered on an "as-needed" basis. Not all Turbo automatics are affected.
Vehicles wholesaled after 11/1/84 have already been modified.
