I need some help here . I dropped my engine to fix some major oil leaks . I'm wondering if I can take this nonworking assy. out while I have the tin off I don't have a T-stat. so i'm thinking it won't hurt to remove them. Am I correct in my thoughts? Here are some pics. of what i'm talking about.


Thanks,
jbart

NO

you need the flaps. especially the one over the oil cooler. look at how the air system works.
if you remove that flap you will have *NO* air going through the oil cooler at all!

you're going to cook your engine in no time ...

the flap over the oil cooler actually forces air into the cooler when it's DOWN and covering the top of the cooler!
