My Saab has been acting up for a while now and it started with just a simple hesitation. Cruising down the highway and it would feel as if the engine 'skipped a beat' and then it would run fine. More recently it has failed to start up, cranks and everything but just wont start. After waiting 15-30 min car starts right up and runs still with the intermittent hesitations. Then yesterday was the first time it stalled out after being started and then wouldnt start again for 30 min. No check engine light, only alert is service theft alarm on center display. Any thoughts? Possibly fuel related?
