The newer B230FT engines ('93+??) have a liquid cooled heat exchanger for the oil cooler. I don't think the '89 turbo cars had any connection between the oil cooler/radiator and cooling system.

If it is the headgasket and you have any mechanical ability, it really isn't that hard of a job. A "big job" with some pitfalls but if you follow the direcitons in the FAQ, it's a piece of cake.

Good luck,
Bean
