Week of May 13: The oil cooled Deutz engine

This past week I had to perform a repair on a Deutz engine. The issue had to do with oil leaking from around the oil cooler. Another mechanic ordered new oil cooler pipes which are about two inches and can be seen in one of my photos. I removed the oil cooler and installed the new pipes and that did the trick. It was interesting to learn about how these engines use engine oil to cool them. I will look into how they regulate the engine temperature possibly with a thermostat of some kind.

  1. The fan and the shrouds are a critical piece in the operation of this engine.
