Coolant flow is from the water pump through the block & head. Then out through the thermostat when its warm enough (or has enough pressure) to the radiator before returning to the water pump

I installed this kit in my 07 great product in theory and good quality. My experience was that rear plug was extremely difficult to access/remove with engine in the truck. The plug did NOT rotate, rather went frighteningly evenly into the engine even with a fine piont pick on the extreem edge. My only saving grace was #6 water jacket stopped it from falling in. Oh and the "heat exchanger" is actually referred to as a torque converter cooler wonder if it was intended to stop trans from melting down under the extreemest of conditions. Regardless the cooler has been known to fail subsequently, mixing coolant into transmission instantly destroying it. I feel the Fleece is the only coolant bypass worth buying despite hell to install but recommend closely monitoring trans temp when towing.

Yeah it’s a 4 if it’s a nice clean engine on a stand and components already removed. Lol

I know this old but some of us are just owning a cummins so I just wanted to ask that is there any procedures to do after getting rid of the heat, exchanger because I live in northern Pennsylvania and it is fairly cold alot of the year so I just wanted to know what I should do differently during the cold months.. and if I need to let it run a bit longer or if I need to start off being easy on the transmission or etc...? Thank you :)

Fleece gives u a 180 degree thermostats for the back. Do u keep the Cummins 190 degree thermostat in the front or swap it to a 180 as well ?

can u make a video for a transmission cooler because u deleted the heat exchanger

It took me 2 hours but i got the freeze plug out. What i mean is the job took me 2 hours

I was going to order this kit, but after looking at my truck I’ve deemed this impossible.

coolant flows the opposite direction that you said in the video. coolant will flow out of the back of the block and into the upper rad hose.

Di they make a by pass for the 12v. I have a 96 that I want to get rid of the trans cooler.

i couldn't imagine trying to get at that plug with it in the truck and the trans not off.. He's using a hammer like there is no fire wall there lol

Great video and thanks for sharing this replacement kit for the OEM transmission torque converter Oil cooler. I"m considering doing this on an 07, 48RE trans with the 5.9 cummins. Someone else asked about the transmission lines that go into the stock cooler. What happens to those lines when the Fleech Coolant Bypass Kit is installed...? And would there be any issues with more northerly / colder climates up in central Ontario, Canada...?

@jessename7849

5 жыл бұрын

I'd say get the manual transmission one then buy a good aftermarket water to oil cooler & replace the stock transmission exchanger. Then run whatever you need to with new appropriate lines to make it work. Also I hope you know that the transmission needs to be in neutral to pump fluid & warm up.

My 97 12 valve gets very hot when I'm pulling heavy equipment would this help

And also, what happens when the rear thermostat fails?

IF I were to try this with the engine in I'd jack the cab up first; either that or increase my fire insurance. Is there no gasket between coolant riser and block?

Is there a reason you cant just run a line from feed line to return of where the heat exchanger use to be and run a external cooler on the transmission?

@jessename7849

This would be easier with motor completely off the truck. No way I’d install one without the motor off

In the first part of the video, the tech say coolant is delivered to the rear of engine through the bypass. Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't the water pump push into the front of the engine, and thermostat is between outlet and radiator?

Pretty sure high boost can't pushout freeze plugs unless maybe your head gasket is leaking. Usually from turning higher rpms causing water pump to make more pressure.

@aaronwolf5714

5 жыл бұрын

HorsepowerTube higher boost= higher cylinder temps, which causes more heat transfer to coolant. The issue is that cylinders 5 and 6 receive less than adequate coolant flow causing pressure spikes around those cylinders which can push freeze plugs. Water pumps don’t create pressure only flow

Жыл бұрын

Just installed the bypass while the head was off. Made the job a little easier. *warning* If you live in a warm climate like Northern California be prepared for much higher transmission temperatures in stop and go traffic or heavy towing at low speeds. Trans fluid coming off the converter in these situations is much higher than your coolant temperatures. When you eliminate the heat exchanger you loose cooling capacity. My truck had survived 280k miles without this product in the same conditions. Head gasket blew when my employee drove too long after the water pump went out. This product is definitely oversold and if you live in a warm climate you might have to drop another $1000 on a good frame mounted transmission cooler.
