It take in coolant for both the eng cooler and the trans cooler.KGO 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ford have deleted the valve. I should have been clearer.Is anybody able to post up some pics of the pipe work on the LH side of the engine (under the manifold) for an BF2 F6 (or otherwise) fitted with a factory eng oil cooler and a ZF6 but not fitted with the factory thermostat valve assy?

If I could find one I wouldn't need to piss about setting up new hosing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
