Hi guys!
I'd appreciate some help...I'm replacing the oil cooler seals, but can't seem to find the last 13mm nut. I have the three 10mm nuts off of the long studs, and one 13mm off of the bracket that supports the passenger side of the cooler, it is up top on the front side of the car. Where is the second 13mm nut? I see a "support bar" in the AA parts diagram, but where is it? The cooler is sliding about 3/4", but that's not enough, and I don't want to force it further if there is still a nut tryong to hold on...help! I have a '75, with super-well-located heat exchangers right in the way... thanks! Jerry |

if you remove the upper 13mm on the bracket that is on the other end of the cooler it should come out? Or you can get to the bolt holding the bracket itself on (harder) an let that come off with the cooler. Let me run outside to make sure I am sending you the right info???????. After years I seem to do this without thinking about it.
OK as you have done already take the three 10mm off and on most type 4 motor you should see a bracket that has a screw holding the two parts of the bracket together. remove it and the cooler SHOULD come out. |
