Drive belts

1) Power steering pump pulley
2) Air conditioner compressor pulley
3) Crank pulley

The alternator, power steering pump, and

air conditioner compressor depend on

drive belts. Satisfactory performance re-

quires that belt tension be correct.

To check belt tension, place a straight-

edge (ruler) across two adjacent pulleys

and apply a force of 22 lbs (98 N, 10 kg)

midway between the pulleys by using a

spring scale. Belt deflection should be the

amount specified. If a belt is loose,

cracked, or worn, contact your Saab deal-

er.

— When disconnecting the spark

plug cables, always grasp the

spark plug cap, not the cables.

— Make sure the cables are replaced

in the correct order.
