I have a leaky oil cooler thermostat or hoses. There is oil on the 
side of the engine from almost the front of the engine to the oil 
filter.  There is the no oil residue after the oil filter. The oil filter 
adapter uses the original oil filter style, not a spin-on.  There are 
rubber hoses and hose clamps to the thermostat and oil cooler.  

I do not have a manual and want to know (before I take it apart) if 
the thermostat could be leaking or is it most likely the hoses?

Does any one have an instruction sheet for such a configuration 
that could be sent?

Are the stainless steel hoses better?  

Does the TR6 really need such a cooler?  My 6 has had a lot of 
horsepower improvements.  

Thanks
Alan
