ATF cooler thermostat
Hi All,
Winter in New England iis coming. In my daughters car, the small plate type ATF cooler mounted in front of condenser is presently plumbed in series after the primary cooler in the radiator. This proved to be a problem last winter, the transmission not heating up quickly or at all to lockup.
- I am looking at 3 choices;
- Re plumb and put cooler before primary.
- Install perma cool thermostat. This has a constant bypass of ~10% and a set point of 180F AFAIK.
- Bypass the auxiliary cooler for the winter.
Comments please!
