I had an o ring fail on the holley carb. This create a major overflow of gas into the carb so much that all 4 bbl filled, it quickly drained into the engine. I realize to change the oil and filter. The problem is the oil cooler i'm sure the engine ran long enough to pump contaminated oil into the cooler. Iam wondering if oil remains in the cooler or does it drain back into the pan. The oil cooler is mounted high in the back and connected in series with the remote oil filter via the stock oil filter location.
I was going to break one of the lines free to see if it will drain. I might have to have to break loose the secon line to allow air in.
Anyone else ever done this.
I also thought of just putting in cheap oil and filter and let run for a few minutes , Drain and then put the good stuff in .
Concerns about the gas possibly still in a cylinder or the cylinder walls being washed down with gas.
I was thinking of pulling the plugs and putting a shot of oil in each cylinder and running the starter with the plugs out.
