'94 940 turbo rough idle, missing, especially when hot

Recently overheated about 2 weeks ago due to cracked radiator. Pulled into driveway after overheating, dumped some water in to cool it down, shut it off. Can't remember if problem was happening then. While waiting for new radiator, I removed the turbo and exhaust manifold to replace a leaking manifo...

ok, thanks, i will look for it. i do know that there is another cable on the wheel other than the pedal cable, i hope that is it. i wasn't sure if a '94 had this because i don't know if the transmission is electronically controlled or not. from reading around the forum about this, i think this is th...

10-12 ounces in ten days of "major" driving doesn't seem that bad in my opinion for a car with 144k miles. i know you said it doesn't burn oil. i guess you are saying that because it does not have blue smoke out the tail pipe, but it's possible, depending on how hard and far you drove duri...

if it is an airlock, this can usually be remedied by removing the cap and running the engine. this should eventually cycle all the air to the expansion tank thus allowing it to all vent. there could be a possibility that there is clog in the radiator core. when you replaced the hose, was the coolant...

radiator compatability across trims/models, 1994 940 turbo

I have been researching a new radiator (mine has a crack in the plastic tank at the upper hose port). Question: Is there a difference in the radiators from the turbo to non turbo models. Many sites are listing the application for a specific radiator as one or the other, but the pictures look exactly...
