The wiring will be a nightmare to get right, even if it were a 'good idea'.92 is LH controlled and the 95 is motronic (i think). fix the 2.0LPT and treat it to a HPT upgrade. it'll run circles around that boat anchor. An HPT upgrade would be as simple as adding an APC system from a C900 HPT that you extracted from a salvage yard. Where is the oil leak? I have never had trouble sealing up saab 4 cyl motors. right now I have an oil leak that I caused when I replaced the rear main seal, but that is a longer story. Otherwise it is leak free.
