I'm in the process of converting my remote oil cooler to fan cooled. After thinking about the wiring with a thermo-switch on the cooler outlet, I asked myself "Why" since I have an oil-bypass thermostat after the oil filter. What's wrong with wiring the fan to run all the time, allowing the by-pass thermostat to control oil temperature?

I used the sandwich adapter that has an internal thermostat. Keeps oil from going to the cooler when engine is cold. I have a Mocal fan that I allow to run all the time in the summer. During winter months, I just disconnect the fan, since there is no need to run it. I had good intentions of installing a thermostat control for the fan, but just haven't gotten around to doing it for the last 2 years. JoeO
