Extended cranking time |
Cars affected |
Saab 9-5 from M99 VIN X3042510 to M00.
Background |
Cranking time is extended somewhat if the fuel level is low (i.e. less than 1/4 tank). Some customers may be bothered by this. The extended cranking time is because the fuel pump ejector does not have a check valve.
Symptoms |

|
4. |
Fit the new ejector with check valve to the pump. Make sure that the belt tongues on the ejector sit correctly in relationship to the stop lug on the pump.
