REMOVAL—Aii-TO-OiL COOLER—8.IL ¥-11 ENGINE
If a leak should occur in the internal radiator
mounted transmission oil cooler (gas engines only),
engine coolant may become mixed with transmission
fluid. Transmission fluid may also enter engine cool­
ing system. Both cooling system and transmission
should be drained and inspected in case of oil cooler
leakage.
(1) Place a drain pan under the oil cooler lines.
(2) Disconnect the two transmission oil cooler line
quick-connect fittings from the transmission oil
cooler lines (Fig. 2). Refer to Group 21, Transmis­
sions for procedures. Plug cooler lines to prevent oil
leakage.
(3) Remove three oil cooler-to-radiator support
mounting bolts (Fig. 2).
(4) Remove the oil cooler and line assembly from
the vehicle.
INSTALLATION
(1) Install the oil cooler and cooler line assembly to
the vehicle.
(2) Install three mounting bolts and tighten to 6
N-m (50 in. lbs.) torque.
(3) Connect the quick-connect fittings. Refer to
Group 21, Transmissions for procedures.
(4) Start the engine and check all fittings for leaks.
(5) Check the fluid level in the automatic trans­
mission. Refer to Group 21, Transmissions for proce­
dures.
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION OIL COOLERS-
DIESEL ENGINE
All diesel models equipped with an automatic
transmission are equipped with both a main water-
to-oil cooler and a separate air-to-oil cooler. Both cool­
ers are supplied as standard equipment on diesel
engine powered models when equipped with an auto­
matic transmission.
Transmission oil is cooled when it passes through
these coolers.
The main water-to-oil transmission oil cooler is
mounted to a bracket on the turbocharger side of the
engine (Fig. 4).
The air-to-oil cooler is located in front of and to the
left side of the radiator (Fig. 5).
The diesel engine is not equipped with an internal
radiator mounted oil cooler.
