Water hoses go on each end and oil hoses to the small fittings.Water circulates through the outside of a matrix of tubes which are filled with transmission oil.If the matrix leaks,water gets in the oil but tbh,I'd maybe think oil could then get into the water system as well.
Do you have a cooler like above or is there a second radiator in front of the main coolant rad? If there is one in front,it'll be full of oil and is cooled by the fan and has no connection with the coolant.
Reading around here on CMN Forums I stumbled up on this post by agrimax on link "RE: 1988 JCB 3CX Alternator/Tachometer" and this pic of the Shuttle oil cooler looks very much like my cooler set-up on my 1700B. And the descriptions & tips everyone gives & I read are making more & more sense to me as time goes on about the way my JCB is set up & operates.
I just need to find a part # and try to get one ordered. Anyone know maybe a part # for one that will fit my JCB #335539?
Like I say, I think that I'll really like this JCB when I get everything fixed & running! I thank everyone for the answers & tips you have given me!!
Oh, and in my previous post showing the pic of the welded on metal post on my machine, I think I found out that it's for a "Boom Lock" that pieces are not all there. I have posted some questions over on Heavy Equipment Forums & have learned some stuff.
