Good news!


Fitted new cooler and pipes tonight, just took it for a quick spin all seems well changing gear really nicely and all. Very smokey though haha just burning off the ATF

Got my parts from rimmer brothers. Very helpful good price and very fast delivery, came te day after i ordered over the phone, was £190 including shipping and VAT for cooler and 2 pipes. Pretty happy with that, would recommend them

Good to hear its fixed, rimmers are great.. also had next day, unlike paddocks 1 week and charging delivery for 2 small items and both in 1 box...

Does yours not have a cooler as standard?

Innit weird how the 3.5 v8 had a bogbrush cooler fitted as standard on the LT77?!

I still run mine but I don't think my oil pump works so I don't think it cools it!

It does, just it got broken

does convection not require a flow, would a stopped pump not block the flow?

 

[Mr Noisy]

Yeah but
