I just recently had the same problem, I found that using an "easy out" worked very well for my stripped lower bolt. If your stripped bolt is the upper than it is a different story. If you are talking about cutting the bolt into pieces make sure you are cutting on the alternator side (assuming you are replacing the alt) if not you will risk changing the pulley in respect to the belt and the will be misaligned and will wear/break belts.

My Saab 900 se turbo 2.0l 4 cylinder Stals out when I push down on the gas pedal. If I release soon enough it cuts back in. any solutions?

Likely has a vacuum hose leak. The hoses all die from the massive heat generated by the turbo engines. Check all the ones on the throttle for cracks.

Rear muffler

The '96 900 S denotes the 2.3 liter non-turbo 4 cylinder engine. This car uses Saab part no. 5174990. The aftermarket version is sold for $184.00 and the OEM for $270.00 at SaabSite. The aftermarket Starla/Walker rear muffler is sold at eeuroparts for $159.90 and the OEM for $263.70. You can also find compatible rear mufflers from your local exhaust and brake shops, probably for even less.
