Pic of clogged Oil Cooler

Just wanted to share my situation and the picture I took.
When members talk about these coolers clogging up they are not kidding.

If you look on top of the cooler next to the 2 studs you will see the "plug" that was blocking my coolant flow.

Thats a nasty looking one. Mine wasn't that bad when I changed it.

Hairball?

Yeah reminds me of what has become the annual cleaning of the bathroom sink drain. LOL

Mine looked about the same. The EGR cooler was clogged up, too. The EGR cooler went back to Sinister Diesel as a core. The oil cooler went to the scrap heap.
