Ford Tempo 2.3 litre Engines 1989/1993

I would like to know if anyone can tell me if a 1989 Ford Tempo 2.3 litre motor will fit in a 1993 Tempo with a blown 2.3 litre motor?

If not, why?

Thank you

They should, i think that 87-94 are interchangable.

NO, it will NOT! I found this out the hard way. 92-94 engines have a camshaft sensor in the block beside the distributor, older ones do not, and if it doesn't have one, the PCM will not know which cylinder to fire.
