Don't you guys run oil filters?
I never did care about my oil coolers and hoses after an engine blow,
bearing wear or something else.
I never got debris from the cooler back into the engine, or better said it
all accumulated in the filter.
The debris size blocked by the filter is around 0.0001968" and after some
use the filter blocks smaller sizes until the filter gets blocked for oil
flow. I don't think that debris in the cooler would do any harm to the
engine if a proper filter is installed and the oil pump won't complain about
I suppose.

Betreff: [Fot] Oil Cooler cleaning

Since this year my engines seem to last only one weekend I seem to be
accumulating Seatrab oil coolers.  Is there a suggested way to clean them
after
blowing and engine or should I spend the money with a new one.  I built
new
hoses too.  I am going to puck the hoses clean so that is not an issue.
Any imput would be great.

Thanks
