[Vwdiesel] Ways of cooling an AAZ

[Bryan Belman]

No, that lets the OIL out and sends it to the oil cooler and back again.  I have 
one but have not installed mine yet.
I do not know how it knows what way to send the oil but it pushes it out and 
then it gets cooled by your oil cooler/air exchanger and back to the source 
adapter plate.

So, you need to connect to this.  The question is, if it worked, why did the 
prev. owner not leave it hooked up.

My guess it is did not work to cool the oil very much?

Do you have an oil temp sender to guage?

My oil in my Vanagon runs at around 230F to 250F when I am on the road at 65mph.

I am hoping to bring this down some.

Yes, I have one of those petween the filter base and the filter, but it has a U 
rubber tubbing, it is not connected to the cooler circuit. I´ll try to post a 
pic of that,I think I have to make water pass trough that "sandwich".

That would not have a stock hook up location for the oil cooler lines.
