It may be overkill but it eliminates the possibility of oil cooler =

I also replace the cooler @ every engine freshen-up.

Listerati,
For those of you running a remote oil cooler and remote oil filter do =
you run the hose coming OUT of the engine into the cooler first or the =
filter first? Just wanted to see how and why (if there=E2=80=99s a =
reason) most run their lines.
Thanks
