Removing Oil cooler/ modine
I've got a new oil cooler/ modine... but its looks as if i'm gonna have to use the centre threaded part off my old block...?
Once oil filter is off, I can see a big nut... what size is this... do I need to use a ring spanner or socket? What thread is it? Once the cooler is off... how does the threaded bit come away? |
There is a hollow threaded pipe with a hex machined on it that holds the Modine on. IIRC it's the end of that you screw the filter onto :)
Hex size is BIG ;) (About 24mm at a guess). Take the filter off and unscrew the pipe and the modine will fall off ;) |
You need a deep socket. its either 21 or 22mm cant remember which.
|
Cheers... its gonna be one of my jobs for tommorrow
|
You need a deep socket, and it is 24mm
|
Cheers... When I undo that... does the threaded bit come away with the bolt? Is it part of it?
|
Yeah the thread is the bolt..
pain in the ass unless you have a very deep 24mm socket as mentioned already, once you have that it is a piece of p1ss.. lol Simon |
Well how did you get on? :)
|
Something else has cropped up... so it didn't happen today... gonna pick up a 24mm socket on the way back from a bit of overtime at work tommorrow...
Will keep you all updated... |
