View Full Version : Need Oil Cooler

Well, I must be an idiot. I'm adding a second oil cooler to my RX-7. Got it all in and it leaked a steady stream from the pressure relief bolt - the "bung" was cracked. So I had one shipped overnight to replace it. It also leaked a steady stream, cracked in the same spot. Either I'm the unluckiest guy in the world or I tightened both of them to too much.

I don't think any junkyards in town have one, and tomorrow I go to the track. If anybody coming to Grattan has a spare 2nd gen cooler they can spare, I'd sure appreciate it. Otherwise it's likely to be a "hot" weekend.

Thanks,

I called my buddy that's going this weekend and was going to send one along with him but he was travelling up I-75 out of Lexington and not coming through Louisville. Good luck. With the weather the way it is the ambient temps don't look to be too bad. Don't melt that new motor.

I found a cooler within driving distance, so I should be good to go. Now if the Hoosier truck will just show up...

Thanks,
