I have & I found the thread in tech but the pohotos are gone

mine sits flat about 1/way up vehicle between heater tube & closest longitudinal "chassis" , it works so well that it has been wrapped in light sheet aluminium since about April to keep oil warm enough, unwrapping again soon though

I found i had to put a alum plate over min in winter and wrap the lines in themo wrap to keep them warm, as it ran really cold.

sounds like you need one of these to keep your oil temp up

or one of these if you have a Type4-a bit neater fitting

yep, I need a thermostat of some sort, have a remote filter, that is underneath battery floor

so what sort of oil cooler did u use???? did u use a separate oil filter???? you obviously didnt need to run a thermo fan?

For the oil cooler I'd say get something like an auto transmission cooler from any late model car from the wreckers. Would be a hell of a lot cheaper than buying new.

yer thatnks chewy everyone using 1/2" lines???

yep

kim can u draw a diagram of how it all plumbs up etc just so i get an idea of where it comes in and where it leaves for the cooler?
