Fellow vanagon types The pipe threads are to short to get 2 regular nuts onto and the nut that holds the cooler to the block are to thin to use as a pair of jam nuts. you would need a pair of 3/4-16 hex jam nuts these are thin enough to get 2 onto the little amount of thread available. this would allow you to change the oring and not disturb the coolant lines going faster miles an hour Bob Donalds http://www.bostonengine.com all rights reserved |
