How to change the oil cooler o ring on an H23?
I have oil comin out of the back of the oil cooler right up against the block. Just wandering how do I get it off and what do I need to change? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
I just did this and its pretty simple, probably took about 30 minutes.
-take off oil filter
-use a deep 30 mm socket to remove the center bolt that holds the cooler on.
-remove old ,flat,crusty o-ring
-install new o-ring with a light cote of silicone sealant to prevent the o-ring from binding when tightening.
-torque center bolt to 40 ft./lbs.
-re-install oil filter
-enjoi no oil leaks!
