 Sir Alex, i can do all but please don't let me show my face for security purposes. i can post the newspaper, date, and i can write something on a paper just to prove it was me and that the dizzy will not go to someone else. 

i have the 59d4  for A series engine

sir mal,  why do you want my address? isn't it that the main thing is for the oil cooler to reach to me and install it to my mini and get the results in two weeks??  if you can promise me not to post my address here, i'll be glad to give it to you....security issues only sir mal,nothing else, but honestly i trust you.

No. I want to hear the results from before and after the install in less than a 2 week timeframe.

All joking aside Boison you really have some trust issues (amongst other things) and should objectively seek some kind of help.

You really didn't think i was going to say yes did you, nice try though.

Sending it to another address other than yours was never an option.

NO hoses and Mini's don't normally use abutment plates, the hoses go to the block and oil filter housing eliminating the metal pipe.

No fan either.

For someone who talks about this subject so much i would have thought you knew all this or would have done your homework at least.

ok, Sir mal, will search a little bit and will email you very soon.

 

 

let me finish watching the cartoons alex posted....he promised me elect dizzy and i think he intentionally forgot about it...im sadCry,  But if alex will put a "good" article about me in the minimagazine(one page)..., hmmm, i think i can forgive him. let's see..

i need some publicity too.

Search a little bit for what !!!!! I am offering you a free oil cooler what is there to search for ?????

Let me do some searching i might find the Cooper S engine it was attached to and give that to you for free, would that sweeten the deal for you ?????

You do take the cake Boison.

ok,Sir Mal, if for some reason you cannot take the oil cooler out of the engine ,it's ok,just send the engine as well, i'll be the one to remove it.,

and,is it ok if i give you my cousin's home address? i drive to his house every two weeks anyway.

 

 

wait, i'm confused, are you in florida or UK??? there are two locations in your profile..

There's a good thread on the mkI forum, technical talk right now related to this. Good discussion about oil temps, thermos and measuring temps. Good thoughts on running TOO cool oil temps. Also touches on adding coolers with some good advice.

Thank you Alex, now I know where to find those all in one place.

I suspect many of us may need to use them.

It's a race car they have to run a catch tank.

I like that fan shroud John, that is one way to get the air over the radiator.
