[T3] [Non-DoD Source] Re: Oil Cooler leaking

Thanks William J,
I had a feeling there would be more to it that I was hoping for.  lol

You can see the oil bubbling out underneat the oil cooler with the engine running, and the nuts are tight (I checked that first)
So it definitely needs to come off and replace the donuts!

 I think the dist as well as the fire wall tin and the wiring across it also has to come off. Plug wires . The fire wall tin you might be able to sneak the left tin cover off leaving it in place . I never pulled just one side in the car . There are a few screws that secure the fire wall tin and it sets on top of both sides upper tin . If I recall  the same two screws on each side secure the lower tin under the cylinders and there are tangs that keep the fire wall tin on the bell housing part of the case.

 All you can do is try and see if you can sneak it out .
