Hey all, newly aquired 740 turbo wagon and my 3rd Swedish car (2 Saab 9000's)--I just seem to stumble onto these!
Used the VERY GOOD speedometer capacitor instructions here and put it all back in and only get up to 45mph. Accurate in all ways up to that point. The article mentioned corrosion at the IC's causing this but couldn't find any additional opinions on this or suggestions as to how to proceed. I'll admit I didn't do a WHOLE lot of scraping around the legs of the IC's for fear of damaging the things so maybe some corrosion is still affecting??
What's next? Thanks for the help!
Jeff.
