Those series radiators were designed to run static p.t.o. applications, yes albeit with a belt driven fan, but consider this... in the middle of harvest (august) temperatures can be pretty hot when bailing or threshing. The disco and defender rads with the oil cooler must also be a good efficiency, to accommodate oil heat sink, but you then rely solely on the cooling system, and if it fails its two eggs broke in one basket. Worse case scenario of course, cheers Yeah true Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snagger Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 There is also the argument that a leak from the oil cooler, however unlikely, will cause cross contamination of the fluids, adding to the rectification work, assuming you find the hidden leak soon enough to avoid catastrophic damage. A separate cooler will give you a warning puddle! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I will be fitting a new 300 rad and intercooler anyway as I don't have either yet so a leaking rad and oil cooler hopfully shouldn't be a problem for a few years at least providing the rad doesn't get damaged of course Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
