anybody replaced the oil cooler on their T? tips, part numbers?
mine looks like it is starting to leak. it is hard to believe that this tuna can has lasted nearly 16 years. sure glad it did because it looks like a PITA to replace.

Is yer oil cooler rusted and leaking that way or could it be the O-rings? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Big O-ring part number is 90301-61004
Small O-ring part number is 15785-35010

Using www.toyotapartsales.com I came up with this...

Here's the part number fer the oil cooler itself...

If it's the oil cooler...you should be able to git that off of eBay fer cheap...like $30?

Yep you need to replace the seals and crush washers on the union. Might also want to replace the lines as well once you're in there.

the oil cooler has very bad rust at the seams, so i think the can is actually leaking. access looks tight in that area. so, i don't think it is a good idea to reinstall the old cooler can.

thanks for the PNs. is the cooler really $700-800? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" />
usually i buy oem parts from caroll at gettel.

yup, the hoses will get replaced as well. good idea.

It's 450-500 on 1sttoyotaparts.com (ouch still)... hoses are about 30 bucks...

I'm pretty sure you can use the ones off of any 5vzfe engines.

I would call them to confirm and git piccies if possible. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

thanks guys. anybody replace this tuna can yet?

for some reason, at about 15 years old, 260k miles...rust has really increased all over the underside. especially control arms, fuel tank/lines, tranny cooler lines, ... just sort of rusted at an exponential rate over the past year. i guess the factory coatings just gave up.

Gotta rust spray (Krown) these things!

Hey, someone is selling his - $50 http://www.customtacos.com/forum/showthread.php?t=149443
Looks to be in good shape.
