acurat2 Posted October 2, 2002 Author Share Posted October 2, 2002 The car's engine froze-up so I want to replace it without having to replace the transmi$$ion. I have tried to look for one, but most companeis only stock '88-up. The car has a 2.0L FI automatic. I don't want to race it, just to bring it back to life. Does it make a diffrence if used engine is auto or manual? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
