' Just found a '91 940 turbo sedan locally for sale. A guy I know who has a repair shop bought it last week, then resold to me for $200 ( also sold me a 760 T a couple of weeks ago). The body is excellent (maroon with tan leather). The mechanic that I bought it from took the head off and found the #3 piston to be seized. The car was still running, but very roughly. He thinks that the rod broke off and must be down in the oil pan now. Mileage on it is 198 K.I haven't taken it apart further because it has been so cold outside.
But, I found a turbo engine from an '89 780 with 100K miles on it. Would this engine drop right in? I think that everything would be the same. I'm excited about getting this one going again.
Thanks,
Dave
