s40speed Posted September 22, 2015 Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 Hey guys I disconnected the hoses on the oil cooler expecting to see oil and instead got coolant is this normal and if so do you know how it works I'm very interested thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TEEKAY Posted September 22, 2015 Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 It should have both. Two inputs, two outputs. One path has coolant and one has oil that run through different channels exchanging heat. If you just disconnected the hoses, there are two ports on the backside of the cooler. I'm going to assume that's the oil loop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s40speed Posted September 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 Ok so if I'd hook up an after market oil cooler would I just reroute the coolant side to the after market oil cooler and back again cuz the kit I seen has a oil filter sandwich plate but we can't use the with are cars right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TEEKAY Posted September 22, 2015 Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 I guess you could pull the coolant hoses and use it for your new cooler and then the old cooler is just an oil loop? Where are you mounting the new cooler / getting its source for the loop? Link to cooler you're talking about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s40speed Posted September 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/mishimoto-universal-19-row-oil-cooler-mmoc-19And I'm thinking about mounting it on the passenger side behind the grill and yeah just route the inlet to the new cooler and then back to the stock cooler inlet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1clean00 Posted September 22, 2015 Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 That wouldn't do much. You would want to block off the oil cooler with a plate, loop the coolant lines, and route the oil lines to a remote cooler. something like this... http://www.pumaspeed.co.uk/product-Focus-RS-Mk2-and-ST225-Focus-Remote-Oil-cooler-Adaptor-Plate_922.jsp&pic=2 obviously you would need to adapt for 4cyl oil cooler fitment.

TEEKAY Posted September 22, 2015 Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 Does the Revolv cooler fit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1clean00 Posted September 22, 2015 Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 They have different mounting surfaces. And the orientation of the lines if a bit different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TEEKAY Posted September 23, 2015 Report Share Posted September 23, 2015 Yo I'm looking at a local shop to make a few adapter plates. Who would be interested? Fella said they would do it in1/4 billet with npt threads. They wanted me to gauge interest of a group buy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TEEKAY Posted September 25, 2015 Report Share Posted September 25, 2015 Nothing like that yet. I sent them pics of these and they agreed they would want to do it similarly but wanted to see how many I could muster. (Their site is http://www.jmfabrications.com/site/) If it's a total price hike I'll bail on it entirely. Earlier Warren mentioned Sutes thread , his is aluminum plate with 8 AN fittings on it. I stumbled upon this googling, I guess newer phased cool kids can swap their pans and use the one for the focus. Adam gave me the link to the thread for this one: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
