Heres the story, I noticed a 1993 Volvo 960 wagon sitting in a driveway, and went to talk to the owner, needs an engine it was blowing black smoke, it has a weird burnt smell inside, it was knocking when he parked it, it has the v6, I am going to look at it again tomarrow, I currently have a 1994 Volvo 940 wagon that has the B230 engine (no turbo) and I was thinking of swapping engines, is this possible? does the trans have to be swapped too? The only other option I have is a 199x Volvo 960 Wagon in the local Pick n' Pull (scrapyard) and I could pull that engine, and swap, but I know no history of it, and it wasn't wrecked, so that might be why its in there??? Any ideas would help. (also, it is worth adding that the owner said that the dealerships that he visited said that they would not fix the engine, but would only put a new one in...)


Thanks,
Tim
