Vw oil cooler/fuel filter mod question
« on: February 03, 2013, 09:38:13 AM »
I remember seeing that someone (think rm)
Had a heated filter head from a vw oil cooler.

Does anyone know what size the connections are?

I found it there 16mm

The connections on my H/E are 12mm so I should run it in parallel rather than series?
Series would be a lot easier.

That is definitely a pug oil cooler. Maybe also find on a citroen, and possibly a renault.
