OIL COOLER 3.11
GENERAL
For engine oil flow through the engine, See 3.14 OILING
SYSTEM.
Engine oil flows from the oil pump to the oil cooler through a
supply hose. The oil circulates through the finned tubes of the
cooler to dissipate heat and returns to the oil filter mount
through a return hose.
NOTE
If any oil line fittings are found to be loose, or not oriented in
the proper position, those fittings must be removed and thor-
oughly cleaned. After cleaning, apply LOCTITE 565 Sealant
to the fitting and re-install to the correct orientation. When
tightening oil lines, always support the oil line fitting with a
wrench to maintain proper orientation and prevent damage to
the oil line fitting.
