Default New guy looking for help and a point in the right direction

hey guys. my name is steve. I am 18 and have had my 92 240 wagon since i was 16. (first car). i have had a mustang gt but was forced to sell because of school next year. UNC Charlotte where i am going to study mechanical engineering.

Well anyway i have a few questions,

1. i have a leak somewhere in the coolant system. The car keeps losing fluid and only "pukes" on the ground sometimes. The leak in coming from somewhere in the front of the block. maybe a water pump failure?

2.I have acquired a turbo from someone with a whole bunch of parts and i was wondering if someone has ever put a 940's turbo on a 240 and what is needed to do the swap.

I have many more questions but ill leave it at those two for now.

thanks
steve

Welcome....

Leak could very well be a waterpump....

Look at the red or green labe on the compressor side....read what the number is (TD04H....etc.)
