I did this in the dark outside in January in Connecticut along with the rear motor mount. The hardest part was putting the new hoses on the plastic box after it was attached to the block. They were very stubborn and very little finger room.
They were a little stubborn but I didn't have much trouble overall. Might be due to the cars here being right hand drive. I think there's a few instances where having RHD makes stuff easier (and also a few that are harder!)
Yeah I toyed with that idea, but it would have meant either some coolant loss or rummaging in the shed to find my fuel line clamps. Thanks for sharing the top though, given that the o-rings on the throttle body can go bad, this might make much more sense in the future.
After a plethora of cars over the years.... i came across a 2001 SAAB 9-5 SE..... on line from an auction web site, and wondering what i had bought, have i made a mistake, have a bought a lemon. Well it turned out to be a well maintained car that had unfortunately been neglected over the past 5 years. With moss growing in the drainage gutters. Anyway i have replaced a couple of hoses and with out this video the upper valve cover hose would have been a puzzle. I removed the oil filler tube which gave me a little wiggle room, but what a bloody job... but i did it. I'm sure it has made a difference but not that i have noticed. However the hose was think inside so I'm sure the car breaths a bit better. Thanks for the vid it gave me the confidence to change it. Cheers.!
Your video helped me out tremendously! I just finished the installation. However, I was lucky enough to do everything from the top of the engine. Take care.
For me, the metal pipe leading to the cobra pipe is blocked, but completely! I had already washed all the rubber tubes and the box before I realized this. I'm not doing this update because it's unnecessary now that everything is clean.
Wanted to see what's inside the oil separator now I see its a simple design. Pro parts Sweden got a bad reputation of being low quality parts but I don't think they would cock up this plastic box. Cheers
Can you let me know what year your car is and possibly upload a photo of the throttle body somewhere for me to have a look? The throttle body did change at some point (I think MY2003) it's possible, that someone has changed yours for the different model.
You should be able to see it in installation instructions at 16:26 onward. If it's the pipe I think you are talking about, it's labelled as "13" in the diagram.
@@H8XME Yeah, SAAB seemed to use the template from the v6 filler but didn't drill the hole out. Catches a lot of people out and you can't really blame them when they see a nozzle with nothing plugged into it!
Oi. You know after you install the oil dipstick tube with the fitting on it. Then you place the hose on it it with the t. What in the hell does that open t hook into? I'm a bit lost

For the vacuum line I just took the coolant hoses off the throttle body and it slipped right on no issue! Great guide, really helped me out!

Glad I could help.
Hi. Do you still have the car?
Your video helped me out tremendously! I just finished the installation. However, I was lucky enough to do everything from the top of the engine. Take care.
Crikey, that must take some doing! Where you working by feel doing the oil trap etc?
@@saabfeverfrank mainly feel. My father-in-law was there to hold the flash light and to supply emotional support.
@@boozerdm1 Well done mate, I might have to give that a try next time I do one!
Good job! Lots of detail for those of us who might very well make the same mistakes you made and corrected. Thanks,
you're welcome, sir!
To connect the new pcv valve, you could use an air pistol heater to heat and soft the vaccum tube....also could use some vaseline

Yeah, I`m sure how I feel about it. Part of me expected to just see a simple box and part of me expected to something really weird....
Thanks for a great video! BTW I'm trying to locate the repair service bulletin you're referring to. Would you have a link for it?
It's in the WIS (Workshop Information System) but I have been able to find you a link here:- www.genuinesaab.com/psi/files2/tsb210-2417ed4%20en.pdf
Hello , I was wondering if you guys could help - my throttle body does not have the 3rd nipple for vacuum - the check valve pipe is just hanging.
Can you let me know what year your car is and possibly upload a photo of the throttle body somewhere for me to have a look? The throttle body did change at some point (I think MY2003) it's possible, that someone has changed yours for the different model.
Can any please tell me where the pipe from version 6 oil filler funnel goes to please 🙏
You should be able to see it in installation instructions at 16:26 onward. If it's the pipe I think you are talking about, it's labelled as "13" in the diagram.
Ok cheers 2009 95 has a blanked off pipe on the inside the filler nozzle do false alarm 🚨
I hope 🤞🙏

The hose at 16:22?
@@saabfeverfrank I think that may be the hose. Does that hose go into the new "T" from the new oil drain tube?
@@chicagoui9299 Yes, it does. Sorry for the late reply, just got back from a little holiday.
@@saabfeverfrank lucky you!! So do I close off the fitting in the throttle body where it used to go?
Un saludo buen día gran video cómo siempre se pondría poner los suptitulo en ESPAÑOL SE LO AGRADECERÍA MUCHO.
MUCHAS GRACIAS
這個零件沒有換新引擎會如何?😊
沒什麼太糟糕的，但應該儘快完成。
No sé si será posible
