i have a brand new 19 row oil cooler, but it needs 5/8 screw fittings, (not a problem cos i have the fittings) but 5/8 is to big for my oil cooler hose already on the RS, is there some sort of reduder fittings i can ger for the oil cooler so that i can use 3/8 fittings on there (which i also have), and before you ask why i bought the wrong oil cooler, i actually didnt the company sent me the wrong one as it was marked up incorrectly on the box, but dont have any more in stock so i thought i may as well keep this i if i can sort this prob out.

cheers for any help

 

thats a big change from 5/8 to 3/8 , why have you got 3/8 on your car for oil cooler hoses anyway - way too small you need to be at 1/2 min really

 

Gra- don't get involved with that - it's far too complicated, and you'll end with HUGE adaptors. Messy, and not right.

Get the right one, and be done with it.

 

the oil coolers nice, so may as well just get me a sandwhich plate, fittings and hose etc,

my old 13 row cooler was 3/8 so thats what sandwhich plate and hose i got, but deceided to changed it when it had a row with a big screwdriver and a breaker bar one afternoon

 

Mine's 5/8""
