Re: [AMC-list] oil cooler

I put a 232 pipe/filter nipple in my 95 4.0L block so I'm going to say, yes you can remove it. 
* I'm thinking there may be a strange washer under the nipple, kind of like a figure 8. 
* I have no idea as to what purpose it serves, none?* yes a socket or perhaps even a wrench will remove it.* You can have a machine shop turn the end of it off to shorten it?
* I'm not 100% sure of if you can just put the nipple in without the washer.

I doubt cooler oil will help your problems?
*might hurt a bit if the expansion of some parts is reduced? piston rings? oil pump? no real idea on this issue.

Subject: [AMC-list] oil cooler 

I bought an oil cooler kit last year for my Eagle and asked my mechanic if 
he could install it before my trip from Maine to Michigan for the show in 
Livonia. He tried, but said the threaded nipple for the spin on filter was 
about 1/8" too long. Before I screw up the one on my car, I plan on trying 
to remove the nipple from one of my junkers out back. I've checked the 
TSM, but other than a blow-up, I don't see instructions on removing the 
nipple. I'm assuming a deep socket, but will anything fall apart inside? 
Is the nut on the nipple adjustable so there's less thread sticking out? 
Is the nut U.S. or metric('82 model)? I'm trying to avoid the inevitable 
of have the engine rebuilt from way too much blow-by and low oil pressure; 
I figure cooler oil might help. Right now it seems to be monsoon season 
here, so I won't be playing in the yard today....
