Thread: Correct engine oil cooler on a 71 2.2?

    Correct engine oil cooler on a 71 2.2?

    Here is a picture of my engine oil cooler, the hose that I have that goes from there to the oil tank it's threaded on booth sides with a 90 metal coupler.
    Is my cooler correct and only use a clamp?
    Or is it the incorrect period radiator?

    Thank You.

    That is a 72 and up cooler.

    Thank You!! Do you know Is there a more expensive value on the earlier threaded type?
    Or if there is a performance benefit on the 72 and later cooler over the 71?

    There is no difference in the cooling ability between the two coolers, and I believe they are both priced about the same. In your case to change to the correct threaded end cooler would also require changing to a threaded end oil tank, since the hose is either a slip-on on both ends or threaded on both ends
