exmoor4x4 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Hi i am moving the radiator from the front of a 300 tdi discovery 1 to the back and was after some advice. first off will i need an electric pump in the system somewhere? someone said if i use "big bore pipe" then i wont but what is big bore? bigger that standard? any other advice or tips to do with a radiator move would be appreciated. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete3000 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Not sure about a pump as you already have a water pump on the engine. you will need 1 or 2 thermostatic electric fans though to draw air over the rad to cool it. if you can arrange it anywhere between say 15 and 35 degrees vertically you can route the piping to help the flow i.e hot to the top and the cold return underneath.

hangover Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 I would blank off the factory water pump and use an electric pump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
