Type1 oil cooler
Hey, the oil cooler on my late fasty has just failed. And i cant seem to find a new one? Can i fit a late type1 cooler without much hassle? I know the oil pressure sensor is not on the type1 cooler and that the bolt holes are smaller. Can i just enlarge those holes slightly and have the pressure sensor elsewhere?
Re: Type1 oil cooler
I believe they are also thinner. I also can't think where else you would mount the pressure sender post oil pump on a stand and engine. You won't find a new type 3 cooler, but there are many second hand ones about. An ultrasonic clean is the way to go.
I may have one but ill have to check this week.
