Re: [T3] Oil cooler

[Erick Williams <onet34me@yahoo.com>]

Ola guys,

I went against your advice --sorry-- I didn't drop the
eng. but I did find the leak. It was the cooler and
the seals were the wrong size. I need the ones that
have the different diameters from top and bottom. I
guess that I have the "off" cooler. What year do you
guys think it is? I am going to a place called NU
Vintage here in Denver CO and they have these seals.
Also it took me only about 1/2 an hour to get the left
carb off, the gen., and the tin. I was pretty happy.
Well talk to you later -------
