Tru-Cool Max install question
I just installed a Tru-Cool Max. In all of the pictures that I have seen of coolers that people have installed. The cooler has been mounted with the hose fittings pointing down. My question is how did you bleed the traped air out of the top of the cooler. I installed mine with the fittings pointed up, it should not trap any air. If there was air in the top of the cooler, the cooler would not be as effective. Tell me what you think. The directions do not say.

Long Tru Cool (LPD) Transmission Coolers
How the Long Tru-Cool (LPD) Transmission Coolers Work:
(LPD) LOW PRESSURE DROP
When Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) is cold it is viscous. The unique Tru-Cool design allows the colder, thicker ATF to flow more efficiently through two open bypass channels positioned at the top of the cooler. As operating temperatures increase, the ATF becomes hotter and thinner. It is then directed through the core where it is cooled. Tru-Cool’s highly efficient cooling technology combines improved protection against lube system failure with optimal heat transfer.

This is how mine is mounted (not my pic, however)and it was described to be done in the dieselsite instructions.

I have not seen any info regarding a specific line orientation, so I would guess that it wouldn't make any difference.
