ZX9 Cooling Pipes
matt.c - 13/9/07 at 10:36 PM

A few questions.

1. Is this the right way to plumb my zx9?

2. Should the oil cooler pipe be "T"ed in to the bottom hose instead of the top hose?

3. If i use an inline temp sensor/switch for my fan, should it go in the top hose?

4. Is it ok to join rubber hoses to copper pipes with juberliy clamps? (will they seal ok?)

Many thanks locosters.

Yes, thats what I've used, Oil cooler outlet to the top hose as it's hot water into the radiator, the bottom hose is cooled water that is pumped back into the engine. (I didn't have the top bleed from the radiator).

Cheers
