Irelands oil cooler adapter

[blunttech]

Anyone else having issues with this thing? leaks like a fucking sieve. It wont seal. I mic'd the o-ring sent with the kit and its a few thousanths thinner than an OE o ring. So I replaced it with the thicker o ring but it still leaks. Im so fucking pissed. I have oil all over my new motor and all over my driveway. I reefed down on the bolt so tight Im worried Ill strip the cannister

Maybe try a bit of sealant around the oring aswell when you button her up?

That's super until you have to change the oil.

I almost bought one myself, but after searching around, I heard generally bad things about them.

It does not surprise me, actually.........I bought their urethane steering coupler, and even though they say it will fit e30's, I don't see how it's possible without considerable modification. :-x

You should never, ever need to use sealant on stuff like that.
