New Oil Cooler -- Need to clean internally?
Jellybean replied to Jellybean's topic in mkiv Technical
Thanks Paul -
I have a new MIH performace Oil cooler (Driftworks supplied)http://www.mihperformance.com/; I presume they are good. Before I fit the oil cooler is anything I need to do to clean internally. I want to prevent any containiments entering the Engine or is this neccessary, it is brand new in the box with Dust caps still fitted Thanks in advance

Cool Thanks for all the help

Thanks, sorry it is the 6 speed I am nearly sure it is a hex key on the side of the gearbox too Just read this Manual box has a 17mm external hex size filler plug (male hex); so a spanner should do
-
Waht Size Hex is the Gear box And LSD , want to do an oli change Alll I can find is this thread but doesnt comfirm its a 10mm for the Diff http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=38988 Thanks
-
Stupid Q, but the An Fitting wont allow me to use a socket , I can only use an open Spanner What tool would you use, tried looking for a Torque Spanner

Bilstein option is just the Shock Absorber http://www1.carparts-cat.com/webkat.asp?SID=0094245127152730018004&ROOT=1 As far as I am aware they use the normal Springs unless you opted for the TRD lowering Springs http://trdparts.jp/english/parts_spring.html I have TRD Bilstein Shocks & Springs ; Lowering at approx. 15mm; I am not sure what the difference if any other than the Colour (yellow vs the Navy Blue on the TRD Shocks)

Thanks , just says not to exceed 30nm , so just tight but dont go nuts I presume
-
How can I torque the an fittings to 30nm, I just have basic spanners thanks
-
Was onto somebody they want 40 pound to do it, just a joke. Only 1-2 cm spot weld
-
I will take a look, see if somebody can
-
Would it not cost as much by the time you do a compression test,new mocal one is 130 delivered

Thanks for All the help

Hey I have a Trust Greddy Grex Oil Cooler -10AN braided fittings, she is leaking at the seam weld underneath; before I invest in a Mocal Oil cooler I was wondering if I can bypass the unit. I think one of the Braided lines might also be slipping, if the bypass Join is cheap enough I would like to test before I buy any oil coolers. I presume I can get a Flare union to bypass this? Any suggestions where I could buy http://www.aeroquip.cc/highperformance/fcm2050.jpg
-
to be honest with you I thing it is a faulty unit, it looks absolute perfect,couldn't believe where it is leaking
-
Thanks, what is the shelf life on there things 2-3 years?
-
My Greddy Oil Cooler is leaking at te bottom seam weld, not too sure if this is common but cooler is only 3 yrs old What are the recomendations, Mocal? I see Driftworks have a 19 row for 90 pound?Looks like Mocal http://www.driftworks.com/shop/p95/19-row-oil-cooler/product_info.html

Thanks

Thats the one, I know what they look like just dont have a clue when it comes to names, I am the same with women; at least I am consistant Nearly sure it was a 10mm hex for the Gear box too
-
I say everything else is standard TT, who knows but Torx key does look like it. It was an attachment I used on a Torque wrench, and definetly not an Allen key end. Looks very like a Torx Key, it was the same on Gearbox and Diff Just out of Curiosity are the Magnetic oil Sump plugs worth getting?
-
Thanks, have a K&N Oil filter so it has a nut on the end I did the gearbox and Diff before but it was some star allen key type, I was using somebody elses tools just wondering what the tool is called
-
What tools do you need to do a Gearbox, Diff, and Oil change? thanks
