Yep, put a block heater in the 1994-940. Somewhat fussy job. The instructions with the kit said to put it in the right-front freeze plug opening, which was at least partly blocked by the PS pump. Anyway that's where I installed it and it has worked fine. The B21/23 blocks get it put in the right-rear freeze plug. Done both my 240's there...easier than the 940 spot.

The B230 blocks have a smaller freeze plug opening (40mm) than the B21/23 (1-3/4 inch) so make sure the parts guys give you the right one.
