oil cooler

Just wondering, did all the FB's have oil coolers, or just the SE's. If the 12a's did have oiil coolers would the fact that I don't have one be contributing to my car overheating on the highway?

All FB orginally came equipted with oil coolers.
81-82 12a : air-to-oil cooler mounted under there small radiator.

83-85 12a : water-to-oil mounted under the oil filter.

84-85 13b : air-to-oil cooler mounted in front of the tall radiator.

So what is the year of your car?

did your problem just start or have you had it for a while? I have read once that someone did remove both coolers, The forum member bought the car that way.
