  One good tip I got from my Dad about coolant hoses. When cool, pinch them all over with thumb and a finger, especially near the heat sources. If the rubber is stiff you are good. If there is a soft section in the rubber that is easier to push in, time to change.

  I love the lack of waffle and the density of info in this video. Really helpful and concise.

  My GM 2007 9-5 2.3t has 241,770 miles &amp; has never had the alternator changed. &amp; Unless Its the corroded cables which I&apos;m about to clean &amp; fix up, I&apos;m pretty sure the alternator has finally failed. A week after I bought Pheonix, nearly killing me in the middle of an intersection, facing a semi 🙄😅 Thanks to your videos, I&apos;ll be replacing the valve cover gasket, dropping &amp; cleaning the oil pan &amp; pick up tube, bought a spare DIC &amp; spark plugs for my trunk, bought a 5 pack of metal pcv valves &amp; keep the spares in my trunk as well &amp; she&apos;s finally getting her first transmission fluid change! <br>Two/three years later &amp; this video is still just as relevant for those like me!

  I drive a 96 saab 900i and have changed practically everything over the past 5+ years and although NG 900&apos;s are hated by the saab community i still get thumbs up on a regular basis.

  It would be easier if a SAAB savvy mechanic can look at all this for you than hassle the seller who probably won’t know this much.

  Great advice on dropping the pan and changing the o-rings. This video motivated me to do it on my 2003 aero wagon at 139K, and it was needed. Next is to replace the MAF sensor which commonly gets out of adjustment and blows engines. Mine is 8% off according to my tech ii. Since it&apos;s only a $90 part and relatively easy to swap, it&apos;s cheap insurance to get a new one for higher mileage Aeros. I&apos;m really enjoying this channel. Thanks Kyle!
