4. Setup and Installation

This section outlines the general steps for installing the maXpeedingrods 19-Row AN10 Universal Oil Cooler Kit. Specific vehicle applications may vary. A thermostat is not included with this kit.

1. Prepare the Vehicle: Park the vehicle on a level surface and engage the parking brake. Allow the engine to cool completely. Disconnect the negative terminal of the battery.
2. Drain Engine Oil: Drain the engine oil into a suitable container.
3. Remove Oil Filter: Carefully remove the existing oil filter.
4. Install Sandwich Plate Adapter:
   • Thread the appropriate threaded adapter (M20 x 1.5 or 3/4 x 16 UNF) into the engine block where the oil filter was located.
   • Place an O-ring onto the AN10 oil filter sandwich adapter.
   • Mount the sandwich adapter onto the threaded adapter, ensuring it is flush and securely tightened. The oil filter screw diameter is 75 mm.
   • Install a new oil filter onto the sandwich adapter.
5. Mount Oil Cooler:
   • Select a suitable location for the oil cooler, ensuring adequate airflow and clearance from moving parts or hot components.
   • Securely mount the oil cooler using the provided bracket or a custom mounting solution. The cooler dimensions are approximately 33 cm x 14.5 cm x 5 cm.
6. Connect Hoses:
   • Attach the flexible steel braided hoses to the AN-10 fittings on the sandwich plate adapter and the oil cooler.
   • Ensure all AN-10 connections are tightened properly to prevent leaks. Do not overtighten.
   • Route the hoses away from hot exhaust components, sharp edges, and moving parts. Use hose clamps or ties if necessary to secure them.
7. Refill Engine Oil: Refill the engine with the recommended amount and type of engine oil.
8. Initial Start-up and Leak Check:
   • Reconnect the battery.
   • Start the engine and let it idle. Immediately check for any oil leaks around the oil cooler, hoses, and sandwich plate adapter.
   • If leaks are detected, shut off the engine and rectify the connections.
   • Allow the engine to reach operating temperature and re-check for leaks.
9. Check Oil Level: After the engine has cooled, re-check the engine oil level and top up if necessary.
