I know in the interest of science I really should but I'm hesitant to touch it since I have no leaks and it works. My conscience may kick in and I might try changing them but I'll fight it :-) Joe Hull Cozy Mk-IV #991 (In Phase1 Flight Test - 35.6 hrs flown) Redmond (Seattle), Washington Finn, If it will do you good, I confess that my oil cooler is hooked up backwards - misinterpreted the Mazda workshop manual as to the direction of oil flow. Cut the lines and made the fittings and hooked it up and ran/flew for a number of hours that way - well, actually approx 280 hours - have not been able to detect any problem. However, I suspect that the thermostat might be a bit slower in closing down in cold weather. Ed
