Im going to be fitting a 1.9 dt lump in a 205 and want to know whether to worry about pluming up the standard oil cooler? Ideally i do want to but poss at a later date.
If people have plumed them in where have they run the pipes from?

I found with mine all I've got is the aftermarket sandwich plate and have to run a stubby oil filter and it's very close to the radiator as it is so with the standard cooler aswell you will have space issues

Yeah you want the standard one ideally
Check out service box for diagram but essentialy one side goes to thermostat housing outlet, other goes to the rad

In a 205 one goes to the thermostat housing and the other goes to the top rad hose but as said space is a major issue
