hi sages- in my ongoing restoration of my recently acquired 92 240 wagon, i put it up on lifts yesterday and crawled all over under and around it. brakes, hoses , pads , rotors, rear main seal all seem ok. not one bit of rust or corrosion. the trans is called the m47 ll 5 speed. early m47s didnt have the #2 (ll) next to the number. is this the same trans and are they interchangeable. one of the big words with car repair is to "anticipate" problems. looks like eventual clutch job is pretty straight forward. upper right trans bell housing bolt looks alittle tight. also any special technique for me to use to adjust the clutch cable- looks like it has two locknuts to move the cable housing to or from the clutch fork. clutch grabs right off the floor. want to adjust it so it grabs about 1/2 way in the pedal travel. by the way block and oil pan are red. have heard some b230 engines referred to as the red block- any significance? hope it doesnt mean the dreaded interference engine. thanks tons oldduke
