Oil Cooler Filling

[Hadouken]

Hi boys and girls. long time no post.

I want a solution to my problem.

I'm about to install a greddy oil cooler with thermo.

How do I make sure the lines fill before the car gets up to temp? Filing the oil cooler is fine I get that. But even if I crank the car to build oil pressure it won't go into the lines because the thermostat is closed? Correct?

Do I have to fill the lines and cooler desperately?

The pretty surethe Greedy thermostat should always let alteast 10% of flow through the cooler, even from dead cold.

I remember reading that somewhere. Which helps. I think I'm just stressing over nothing. if I let the car idle till warm then it should be OK... I think. Haha.

i have one sitting in front of me - i can confirm the flow is not fully cut off when the thermostat is closed.

this is what i plan to do. Don't forget to top your oil up afterwards.
