I finally got around to installing my aux oil cooler. Used a Mocal thermostatic sandwich plate and Derale fan/cooler. Aeroquip blue hose with -8AN push on ends connected it up. Hose runs next to valve cover and zip ties to the wire bales (should make valve adjustments interesting). I removed the heater J tube on the passenger side to route the cooler lines. Since that J tube was just capped anyway, I just removed the J tube and put the cap where the J tube normall attaches to the heat exchangers. So there is no change to the heating system.

I'm gonna use that blue hose for fuel lines.
I don't trust it for oil lines.....but WTF do I know. Since you've got it on there, I'd put some hose clamps on the barbed ends.....unless Aeroquip specifically says not to. That set-up is better than nothing. You may well get your 20 deg drop......but WTF do I know? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif) |
