REFLECTOR: Oil Coolers

[Jim Sower]

Me neither.  Unless I'm very badly mistaken, when the pressure (from any 
type restriction at all) backs up to the relief valve, it opens and 
vents the rest of the output (however much volume that may be) back into 
the sump.
More volume at same pressure through parallel coolers, but no more 
pressure ... Jim S.
