I've read Tencents posts. Assuming he wrote the instructions, it makes
sense that he was so thorough and clear. Writing instructions that the
"everyman" can follow is not an easy task IMO.

Not sure if all external oil cooling kits have this, but think this is
worth mentioning. From his "better" WBX engine ad:

"1. Oil Cooler Kit: all kits include Mocal sandwich plate adapter with
built-in thermostatic control valve, ....."

Seems the valve opens at a certain temp. i.e. the external oil cooler
isn't cooling the oil all the time.

Neil.
