Oil cooler, how do you remove / replace.
Greetings.
I've just brought my 440, and my service has gone very badly wrong - see thread in 400 series for the full gory details. Long and short of it is I have ended up with the base of an oil filter *welded* to the oil cooler. I need to get the cooler out. I've found I Can't pysically rotate the cooler as the LHS water pipe crashes into a cast mounting on the block. So I'm now stumped. The only way I can see to get it off is to hacksaw or grind off the pipe on the cooler. That done how on earth would I get a replacement oil cooler on ? |

oil cooler
From memory (not always reliable these days) I think there is a large nut in the middle that retains the cooler to the block, seem to remember it screws on the same thread as the oil filter.
Yes it does just found a pic. Paul.
