FINALLY!!! If things work out, tomorrow my son & I will remove an AW71L from a 95 940 in a PNP yard that has written on the windshield 'bad motor, good trans'...YAY!! I have been searching for a lock-up AW for the wifemobile for a long time. I had a choice between the AW71L with 165K miles and a 92 AW70 from a 240 with 125 miles.The lockup version should give her a 2-3 MPG boost,correct?? The only drawback is that the fill tube on the AW71L is bent and dinged up, but a quick transfer from another AW tranny pan + fill tube will solve the problem.
Is there a song 'Dextron in my hair'??
Any suggestions as to what to look out for??
Thanks,
raidman
