Exclamation flushing oil cooler!

how's everyone flush out their oil coolers?nobody around here will touch mine,exept a place about 1+ hrs drive away,and they dont sound to convincing....This place www.oilcoolers.com seems to be the cream of the crop[all the aviation places refered me to him],and after reading all the info on the website and talking to him,i'm seriously considering sending mine down to cali. to that shop....but,round trip shipping and labor cost will be over 100 bucks,not to mention it will be the end of next week before i get it back-hmm..

and..the question remains...will this drop my oil temps??

There was a good thread posted fairly recently In regards to Oil Cooler flushing. Do a search. That should answer your questions.

I posted that thread. Having it done by a FAA certified repair depot is the way to go. mine cost 125 to be done. Including a 24hr flush and hydrotest.
