Beginning with MY 1988, the 900s had the same brakes as the 9000s. The rear brake piston must be turned in with a special wrench, not compressed as in earlier 900s.
According to the manual (you do have a manual, don't you!) you need to remove the threaded screw plug covering the adjusting screw. The piston adjusting screw requires a 4mm Allen head wrench.

How do you push the piston back in the front brake caliper on a Saab 900?
There are several different front brake calipers for the Saab 900 depending on the year. The first is from 1979-1987 and is the same as that on the Saab 99 beginning in 1975. You need a special tool to rotate the caliper piston back into place because the front caliper also acts as the parking brake. From 1988 thru 1993, the front calipers on the Classic 900 are the same as those on the Saab 9000. The NG 900 has a completely different brake caliper setup beginning with the 1994 model.

Can anyone tell me where the fuel tank is located on a Saab 9000?
Well I have a Saab 900. If you are referring to what side the tank is on, its the passenger side which took me a long long time to get used to. Saab always has to do something unique(and usually impractical) but if that's not what your talking about, on my 900 it is on the passenger side just in front of the rear axle.
