RE: [T3] Thermostat/Oil Cooler


Almost.  That was written for the Type 1 motor.  Our Type 3 motor doesn't
use the flaps to direct air through or over the oil cooler, they just
control the amount of air that flows over the heads...and the oil cooler so
happens to be in that line of affect and air always flows through it.
