Hello. I have a 1998 Mercury Mountianeer and noticed a lot of oil/greese leaking from the front end. I cleaned it up and took the mounty to my mechanic and he said that the leak is coming from a bad oil cooler. he said the problem is that on these models the oil cooler is connected to the oil filter/adapter and that its a discontinued item from the dealer and is hard to find. I was thinking about pulling one out from a junkyard. I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with this or can offer some advice and maybe a picture of what the oil cooler looks like. Thanks a lot.
