hi guys,
I dropped my motor to do some preventative maintenance, and have been cleaning 32 years of oil from the motor and tranny...I found the oil pressure sensor to be leaking and ordered a new one...there was a good bit of oil under the motor, I dont know if the oil was from the oil pressure sensor, or from the oil cooler...there was some oil residue from the bottom corner of the cooler near the jug. Is ther any way to test the oil cooler...thinking about putting oil cooler seals in as a minimum...thanks Joe (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/flag.gif) |

when I installed my engine I had 2 oil coolers, I soaked both of them in paint thinner, and pumped a can of carb cleaner through each... then tested the pressure with air... one worked great, one was still kinda plugged... but you can clean them out pretty good like this... if you want... but in retrospct, I probably should have just bit the bullet and paid the $150 (or what ever it was) and got a new cooler...
