coalport Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 can anyone explain why this is described as an oil cooler when it's attached to the block out of the airflow with the hot water from the heater flowing through it http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BRAND-NEW-FORD-FOCUS-OIL-COOLER-1-8-DIESEL-1999-2005-DIESEL/251306680011?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isetta Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 i think I am right but don't gurantee it. i think the pipes with the blue caps on connect to water hoses to help cool the oil because the water temperture will normally be below the oil temperature Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
