I DO NOT CLAIM TO BE AN EXPERT OR A MECHANIC, BUT I DO KNOW A WEE BIT ABOUT Saab's.

1. OK FIRST YOU NEED TO FIND YOURSELF A SPARE CAP FOR THE RESERVOIR.

2. YOU WILL ALSO NEED A VALVE FROM A WHEEL OR TUBE (even a bicycle one will do).

3. DRILL THE SPARE CAP & FIT THE VALVE TO IT.

4. REMOVE THE GOOD CAP FROM THE RESERVOIR & FILL UP WITH AS MUCH BRAKE FLUID AS IT WILL HOLD.

5. NOW PUT THE CAP WITH THE VALVE ON THE RESERVOIR & CONNECT A HAND PUMP.

6. PUMP IN ABOUT 5psi (if you use an ordinary foot pump, then one stroke is enough)

7. LOCATE & RELEASE THE BLEED SCREW (only about half a turn, just so the fluid comes out)

8. ADD MORE AIR WITH THE PUMP IF REQUIRED, BUT KEEP AN EYE ON THE FLUID LEVEL.

9. WHEN THE LEVEL OF FLUID IN THE RESERVOIR GETS BELOW HALF WAY, LOCK OFF THE BLEED SCREW- THEN REMOVE THE CAP- TOP UP TO THE VERY TOP AGAIN- REPLACE THE CAP WITH THE VALVE ON IT- ADD MORE AIR THEN RELEASE THE BLEED SCREW & PUMP THE FLUID THROUGH THE SYSTEM UNTIL THE FLUID DROPS TO THE MAX LINE ON THE RESERVOIR.

10. LASTLY LOCK OFF THE BLEED SCREW & REPLACE THE PROPER RESERVOIR CAP.

How do you fill clutch fluid in a 1991 SAAB 900 S?

Clutch fluid comes out of the same reservoir as brake fluid. So...go buy a little bottle of DOT 4 fluid (for the love of all that is good DO NOT PUT DOT 3 IN A SAAB!) and pour it in.


Will a 94 900 Saab trasmission fit a 99 900s?

Nope. They're completely different. The 1994 Saab 900 has an engine oriented fore-and-aft. The transmission is in the oil pan. There are a lot of other differences, but for now this is enough. The 1999 Saab 900 has a transverse engine like most other front-wheel-drive cars, and the transmission is bolted to the end of the engine. One big advantage of the old layout is the clutch replacement procedure. Instead of having to remove the engine or transmission to get at the clutch, on a classic Saab 900 all you need do is remove a plastic cover.


How do you adjust clutch on Saab?

To adjust the clutch pedal on a Saab the clutch line needs to be bled. Bleeding the clutch line will allow any air to escape and stiffen up the pedal.
