I am putting new hose on my external oil cooler. I am trying to figure out which side of my sandwich plate is the output side so I know which side to put my thermostat on. Can anybody give me an idea base on this picture. I am trying to avoid taking the sandwich plate off. I cranked the starter for a few seconds to see which side the oil came from however it came out of both sides so that was't much help.
Below is a link to the same adapter plate that I have- http://www.jegs.com/i/JEGS+Performance+Pro.../51712/10002/-1  |

The oil goes from the pump to the outer part of the oil filter housing, then goes from the center port of the housing back into the engine.
I can't tell from the picture which port goes to the outer area of the housing and which goes to the center part. The sandwich plate I used has arrows molded on the sides by the ports. I suggest you scribe arrows in yours once you determine which is which. It will make life easier if you ever have to go through this exercise again. --DD |
