I'm having problems with getting an oil cooler that is useable, the problems I'm having are the threads are either stripped, or it leaks from somewhere else, but, my question is, if I blank the hose holes up on the engine temporarily, until I get a useable cooler, will that cause a problem with oil circulation?
Cheers

Have you looked at a cooler for a ZR750 Zephyr, probably the same, I wouldn't blank off the cooler personally, it is there for a reason.

dont blank them loop em together with a bit hose ..but as said its on for a reason

I have a old one ,off a unitrack 11 ? if it would be any good let me know ?

I think i have some old hoses as well , i think they are the same ?

I am sure someone on this forum will know ?

Thanks for the replies.
I was onl;y going to block it off temporarily, so I could getting it running properly while sorting the cooler.
I'm not sure about the GPZ1100 cooler, I've already had the frame powder coated, so I don't want to have to fit any new brackets, and it has different fittings to the 750, but it is an option, thanks.

Do you have a picture and dimensions of the cooler and I will compare it to my 750 Zephyr cooler if it helps.

You won't hurt the engine by disconnecting the cooler ( especially with our weather )
But DO NOT just blank off the take offs or you will cut off the oil supply and wreck your engine.
You MUST link the take offs with some hose so that the oil can still circulate.

gpz 1100 is totally different ..also the hoses are aswell.. as these go over the cam cover and connect to the top of c/case .. think gt 750 is same as r .. ..i have some pipes if you stuck

A mate of mine has one I'll pm you his number!

Thanks Steve, I bet you have!!!

Cheers Phil, it looks like I'm sorted now.

Thanks for the help people.
