Thanks and heater motor question 700 1989

Thanks to those on the board who helped when I asked about putting a 86 engine in my 89, took it too work today, about 40 miles. Seems to run OK though it lacks some low rpm grunt, perhaps I'm not used to driving an auto, and it's my first 700 series. Especially thanks to John Sargeant, it was much easier changing those sensors with the engine out than it would have been later. The heater motor doesn't work, replaced fuse and you can hear the motor trying to do something but no go. I need to change this tonight, can my 86 motor be made to fit? I understand 89 was a split year.


Thanks, TMV
