Hi, I am trying to find an aux. coolant pump or after-run turbo coolant pump for some of the 2000 year and above new beetles and audi's.
It pumps coolant through the turbo housing after the car is off.
I want to use this to pump cooled coolant returning from my rad. on a diesel vanagon through the oil cooler and out the hot side.
The oil cooler has a feed from the hot coolant coming out of the head and a feed from the cooled return coolant. It seems the hot coolant is winning the coolant flow battle, so I want to see if putting an aux. coolant pump on the cold side to pump the cold fluid into the oil cooler will work, it sure seems like a simple fix. I seem only to be getting hot coolant from the head into the oil cooler and out and down to the cold return line. This pump would run once the coolant reached operating temp.
I have been searching e-bay for one and the web, but only find post on the pump running in a new beetle, both TDI and gasser, audi's have them, looking for a new style model that will fix a 1 inch hose size. Vagcat is not helping but I do not have 2 hours to search.
any help would be great, trying to find a used one as I am sure a new one is over $200.
thanks
