Re: Engine Hesitation 900 1993

Unsure at what mileage the timing belt broke since I bought it used from a dealer. Unfortunately it happened after the warranty was up. Since that time, I've read it is a cronic problem (i.e., design flaw) and 30k change over is the key. Overall, I like the power of the 960 but it's a high maintainence vehicle. Most annoying was the micro switch on the AT shift that went twice. On the other hand I also have a 86' 240 wagon (bought new and now has 210k) and 740 Turbo Wagon (bought used) that are running great.
