I've owned a couple of 900s with B engines. The only significant difference is the presence of an idler shaft, which drives the water pump and dissy.
On one of my 900s, the shaft was stripped where it drove the water pump. Used a large 12V bilge pump instead. Lasted for over a year, until I sold the car. May still be going. Bye the way, the water pump is a b**ch to replace.
Check that the water pump is good, and that the timing doesn't drift (will do that if teeth are getting worn).
Other than that, They're good, solid engines. No complaints here.
