I have a 1987 240 wagon with a bad transmission and probably over 200K on the engine, maybe considerably more. But the engine is still running fine. I also have a '91 wagon which was absolutely pristine until I put my wife in it for a short interval while I replaced the transmission in the '87. BUT that only lasted a few days; then it was totaled in a crash. My question: would there be any difficulty in doing a transplant of the engine and transmission from the '91 into the '87? I'm curious about issues with engine controls, injection and so on with the newer engine. Anyone been through something like that?
