Lifan 140 oil cooler removal?

[kpracing12]

Can I remove the oil cooler and block up the cooler line holes in the crankcase without upsetting the flow of oil in the engine on a Lifan 140cc?s
Thanks

Just run a line from one to the other. No need to block anything.

Like this:

you might want to cut it down or something if you do that because if that gets caught either you or the engine is gonna get hurt .

or you could rotate it up a bit, should get it out of the way..

but the questions is: why are you taking the cooler off?

don´t block it off!!!!...the line must be connected to insure correct oilflow!!

if you pull the side cover off you can see where the oil flows out of the crankcase hole and in the sidecover hole,there is a small thin wall between then just drill ahole thru it then just put bolts with washers in your pipeline holes,done this to mine months ago and have not had a problem,also no hose hanging out to worry about

Maybe a pic next time your tinkering Clunky?

but yeah, not sure why you would take a cooler off?
