Power steering - removal of cooler?
Hi,
I have a classic type r. I changed the power steering pump for a newage version. In the process I changed the HP line to a braided earls hose and also removed the cooler.
On testing this setup, all was fine but on a run (warm day but not a thrash) there seemed to be more heat than I wanted from the pump and pulleys.
Has anyone else removed their power steering cooler with no issues?
Cheers
Rich

Ok so it should be fine without the cooler. I wonder if the flow is different with the braided hose feeding the rack... or it just normally runs hot and I just didnt notice before (car hasnt moved much this year), or could my belt be on too tight causing more creating excess heat?!?
