My saab 93 diesel cranks but wont start

SOURCE: saab 9-5 3.0 tid 2004,turning over but not

have you tried bleeding the injectors by just cracking the unions until you see fuel leaking then tighten them as i stupidly run out of fuel and my 3.0tid wouldnt start even when recovery company tried and that is what it turned out to be an air lock

SOURCE: I have a saab 93 1.9 TiD with a non starter issue.

Is this a diesel? Some say it could be an EGR valve issue

Hello,
You didn't mention any trouble codes. In 1996 all vehicles manufactured in the U.S were required to install the second generation OBD, also refered to as OBD II, to insure that a standard scanner could be used on all vehicles.

It shouldn't be a fuel problem with everything you've had done.

I don't believe it's an emissions problem, because, although emissions can cause a vehicle to stall it usually gives a bad idle and poor acceleration among other things.
Because you don't mention bad idle, loss of power, or no restart we can safely say it's not an emissions problem.

The only thing left that I can think of is an electrical short. I would start with having both ends of the auto shutdown relay checked for a good connection and have the contnuity checked.

Secondly, I would ant to have the wiring in the steering column checked for the same thing, in particular around the ignition. I am very sure your problem is electric.

I'm very sorry your having these issues and I hope this will help you solve them.
If you have other questions please feel free to leave me a comment, and I will get back to you ASAP.
Thanks, Donnie

Anytime you replace the pump you should replace the filter. Most common cause of pump failure.As the filter is clogged it can and will get the pressure, but not get the volume.

Check the battery and the cables.
