Oil cooler issue
Hey guys,
I am new new here and from the UK :) I have been searching extensively for some seals/gaskets for my Blazer 4.3 LT V6 1998. I have attached some pics in the url and would appreciate some feedback and advice. Cheers, Thelly https://blazerforum.com/forum/member...l-cooler-7924/ |
gaskets
I got mine at o'reilly's auto parts here in the US... maybe you can order from their site? is one of those the gaskets from the adapter? did you have a leak? if so make sure you have isolated it to the lines entirely, i thought mine was just lines but the gasket in the adapter was deplorable. I don't remember if the gasket set was doorman or not but worth googling. Lastly, if you need the car to run in the meantime you should be able to drop the adapter out... take the filter and oil filter nipple from it's housing... screw the nipple into the engine block where you dropped out adapter and screw filter right on. This will work fine as long as you aren't dogging the heck out of you engine or towing or live in daily hot hot hot weather. you have a model a few years older than mine and I think your nipple screws off where mine did not and I had to pick up another from the dealership.

This pack from Summit has the gaskets for the filter and remote filter locations ($3.97). It also has the 'O' rings that go inside the radiator in the little groove. But the line seals they have suck. They're just 'O' rings. The second link from JEGS has the better Dorman HELP! seals for ($9.99).
