Saturday was spent sorting out the ducting work to all the coolers in my car. I just did not get to the oil cooler .
Will do that tomorrow. Just on my drive home I could see water temp differences.
I have an old "new" aircon fan from an Alfa Romeo which I may just add to the rear of the oil cooler, run it in conjunction with a temp switch..
My oil temps went up to about 130 deg C last time. That`s bordering on high oil temp..although the ducting should prove to be the solution...



Today-Sunday - was spent helping John with the Celica. He was having cooling problems after the latest head gasket replacement.
Kieries/kriek/springkaan whoever it was stacked all the coolers on top of one another. Then we also had the problem of space /fitment for the fan/s..
Long story short, John took out the "aircon" type fan and replaced it with a proper curved blade high cfm rad. fan. Fitted with a proper strong motor to drive it !
Now this thing works extremely well !
We also removed all of the crap behind the bumper cover like "foam" damper, stripped the front cross member to buggery and made some nice mounts for the gearbox and engine oil
cooler`s. We spread them to the outer corners and opened up airflow to the i/c and rad.
John added two extra air "holes" to the bumper cover which definitely adds to the over all air flow intake.
There is a real marked difference in temps already. Next weekend Sat. we will "box" in air guides to the individual coolers.
I am certain that will take care of any heat spikes .
