Engine oil cooler feed line insert.

All very interesting, and nice picture Tony. This little trap is an area that has needed covering. I thank you guys for your collective input and I am a lot happier going forward with my carrier, now that I have had the benefit of your input. Thank you again Tony and Alistair.
I must say that Andrew R. said the Aussie cross bore plug has a hole in it. I have not seen the critter in real life ( carrier part no. 656-6) There is no picture (that I am aware of) and no ref. to a hole. Maybe one of the other LP2 guys can chime in to clarify the details of this (1/4 BSP) plug / restrictor.

Tony, the last line, of your last post, is that a pit trap for catching Kiwis?

Hmmm, very interesting....that would make it a partial flow oil cooler. This may be cold climate mod (to ensure oil gets hot) or to compensate for late production motor (original motor ran 40 psi, late production ran 70 psi).
