Default Re: My engine oil cooler is leaking - correction

I figured youd need a new radiator. How much did that set you back?

You should really consider the external Trans cooler/radiator bypass.

It will prevent catastrophic failure to your Trans and cooling system and your tranny will run much cooler, a very good thing.

I just got back from camping. We pulled a trailer up the same mountain I snowboard at all winter. In air temps 30-40* warmer and WITH the trailer I was towing the tranny never got above 150*.

In Winter time towing nothing I'd hit 200* degrees easily...... That's huge temp reduction which is very beneficial to our trannys.
