Oil Filter Oli Cooler/warmer

**CharlesBrown** · 05-21-12, 03:49 PM

Some early C4's had the subject cooler located between the engine block and the oil filter. Coolant was run through this device.Thist is not the one that picks up the oil for transfer to a remote rad.
There is no mention of this assembly in the FSM. If you have or know of some place where I can get an "exploded view" of this assembly. It would be much appreciated.

When I replaced my oil pan gasket, it included a set of oil cooler gaskets. I never replaced them, but I did re-torque the oil cooler down when I had the oil filter off during normal oil changes.

Do these look like the right ones?

Yes! sorry I took so long to reply. Wanted to see if I could get away without the cooler. Can't! running near 250/260F with A/C. Let me know if you want to sell.
Regards, Mel
