Any idea what this device does? Is it a heat exchanger between the aircon and fuel and is it standard on a 4.5 Cerb?

Oh yes good shout, it's rather perished and cracked on the inner surface. Just whipped it off, the tensioner bearing seems ok but it is 20 years old. Should I replace that as well do you think?

Hi Rob,

Yup, as you said, it's a personal thing.
Worst jam I've ever been in was when they closed the M20 for bridge installation.
3 hours (and with newly installed ACT cooling piping yikes )

Hottest I ever got was trying to find a place to park in Monza, in Sept ,for the GP.
Water measured 102° but I still didn't put the AC on coz I always get a headcold when that throat-level ball-vent is open.

So I can survive it
and
Now that Gordon has told me that it cools the fuel in the return line then I will remove it and see what happens.

I'll 'favourite' this page and let you know how it goes thumbup

and THANKS VERY MUCH, GORDONthumbupbowbeer

p.s. Don't know when it was "hot and humid in Lux", musta been before the Russians moved in and took over the Red Light districts.

If you do decide to go aircon free can I have your aircon compressor as it looks a lot newer than mine?:thumup:
