Oil cooler question


Recommended Posts

It looks as though the oil leaves the engine via the takeoff on the oil pressure switch plate & returns into the oil filter housing. The problem is that the oil is also still running around the engine via its normal circuit so only some of the oil (or maybe none) will find its way to the oil cooler. It's only fit for the bin (or Eblag)

Logical explanation - I forgot the oil switch on these works as a relief valve ie. lifting on pressure about 1 psi LOL!  So cooler will get pressurised oil @ whatever pressure the engine makes but can't imagine flow will be much via the switch !
