NOTE: Installation of the oil cooler is accomplished in the exact reverse order from removal.

NOTE: Prior to installation, lubricate the slip fit O-ring seals on the ends of pipe (3) and the oil cooler with clean oil to insure proper installation. Replace the gasket on the opposite end of pipe (3). Check the oil level, and replace any oil that has been lost during removal with clean oil. Refill the cooling system with fluid. See the Maintenance Manual for correct fluid levels.
