Hey,
Im gonna have a stab at fitting a trans cooler in series with the original in radiator cooler on my TW VRX sedan,what i need to know,is can someone draw me a sketch or maybe a photo of how to plumb the cooler in?
Thanks
Steve
Disconnect the return line from radiator, then run hose from rad. to cooler and back to trans. return line.
To work out which way it flows, disconnect one trans. hose and get someone to turn the motor over,[DON'T LET IT START] while you observe flow direction.
Also go to Autospeed.com for info.

Al, there is an easier way to determine the oil flow from the trans. Start a cold engine, let it run 30 secs, change gears several times while standing still, switch off motor, now go and feel the two pipes. The warmer pipe is from the trans, the less warmer is the return from the cooler. And in case your wondering, yes I have solved the towers of Hanoi.
thanks mate, Dan mentioned that too.

Forget the top line, the lines are right.
