I don't have an oil cooler on my 1850 auto and have been advised that it is a good ideal.
Does anyone have the pipes and a oil cooler that don't need please?

There's a chap on ebay (forgotten his username) that's broken a lot of Dolomites, including a Sprint auto. He's still selling a lot of 2nd hand parts, he may still have the bits - worth a try.Magenta Auto Sprint wrote: ↑Tue Aug 27, 2024 2:47 pm I don't have an oil cooler on my 1850 auto and have been advised that it is a good ideal.

Re: Automatic oil cooler etc
Optional extra only required on the 1850 if towing, but standard equipment on the Sprint.
Apparently the Stag item is close enough similar.
If it is I'd suggest a used auto' cooler would be false economy as the aluminium oxidises dreadfully for some reason as soon as they're off the car; I took one off years ago and it literally turned to dust in the bin liner I'd wrapped it in.
