I have a 1995 850 with a great engine however I was in an accident and the body is damaged. I purchased a 1997 850 that has a great body and lots of electronic extras but with no engine or transmission. I would like to swap my '95 engine into the '97. However the '95 is OBD I and the '97 is OBD II. Does anyone know how to handle the OBD conversion? Are there additional sensors? Are there other things to worry about?

 

does the 97 still have all the wiring in the engine bay?

 

It will be a pain to do the swap.
If the car still had the tranny and a blown motor it would be pretty easy. But the 95 tranny setup is alot different than the 97. There is more sensors and they read differently.

 

Yes, all the wires are in the engine bay and I do not have the old engine or transmission.

 

You might be able to get it to work if you use all the 95 wiring in the 97 body.
But that's about all I have because I have not done that as of yet.
