1982 240D Oil Cooler Hose Location

Hi Kent,

I have a slow and annoying oil drip originating at the base of my oil cooler. I suspect the hose connector(s) and/or oil cooler thread fittings.

I've been searching for a replacement cooler and hoses, but everything I've found (including items in your store) show an oil cooler with connections at the top and bottom.

For some reason, the existing hoses and cooler in my car have both input and output connections at the bottom of the oil cooler.

Hot Wire H/AC Blower motor? 86 300SDL Turbo

Well I HAD my blower working.
Don't know why but it up and quit after a couple of days.
I ran 12v to the motor and it works.
I suspect that the Resistor is bad(just a hunch any one know how to check it?)
Would I do damage to anything if I were to bypass the resistor and run wires from the plug (leading into the resistor) to the fan motor?
Or should I put in a toggle switch and run a lead from a hot source?
I realize that it would be on "full" mode when on.
The $400.00 on a resister would be better spent on more important things right now.
