It says automatic in the first post and being a 1990 it is most likely an AW71.

I always thought 16v automatics had their own version of the AW71 to utilise their powerband better- the AW72.

Its a very weird bit of information that I learned from a friend who had a 940 GLE with one in. I wonder if they're any stronger/ worse than their AW71 counterpart...
