  • (Ford) F4TZ-6A636-AA (97-up)
  • (Ford) F4TZ-6A636-B (96-before)
  • (International) 1831665C1

Those look like the right o-rings and gaskets. Assuming the o-rings are the problem and not an internal leak in the cooler that is all you will need, but it might be a good idea to go ahead and get a new cooler.

Shouldn't take more than a couple of hours assuming we get after it.

How do you do that? Pressurize the injector cups and look for signs?

On the mechanical PSD's you can pull the fuel return lines at the regulator and pressurize the coolant system. If you get pressure from the fuel rails it has to be coming past the injector cups.

The oil cooler can also be tested with pressure on the degas bottle.

Oh yeah. An 8.1 mega pixel SLR. It takes pictures you can print 24x36 posters from. Sweet. Although, you shouldn't see me with any oil on me
