Yesterday's Elite Oil Cooler Change ...
« on: 29 August 2007, 16:21:06 »

... went extremely smoothly. Couple of extremely minor setbacks, but nothing that couldn't be overcome. Finally had a chance to use my new crows feet. Great weather for it too.

I've just been sent the pics, so thought I may as well humiliate myself on here as usual ;D

The 19mm crows foot spanner realy does make this job so much easier to do, as a tip, if the block end of the pipes are stuck, tighten them slightly first.

If you do, it distorts the hex on the nut and then your in real trouble.
