Sorry, searched this on the site and with Google and found nothing.
Having some second thoughts on where I installed an inline AT filter yesterday on my 2008 Suburban (after I finished a cooler install). I was closing browsers this morning and noticed on the Magnefine website that they tell you to mount their filters in a section of straight cooler line. I missed that yesterday and didn't do that. I put mine between the new cooler output and the factory return line. Splicing it in here between two pieces of rubber hose was simple, and it's a location that won't require me to take off the front clip to change the filter. But there is an small, gradual curve on both sides of the filter, and the fluid has t flow "uphill" into the filter.
I don't think flow could possibly be restricted very much at all, but it's not mounted exactly as Magnifine suggests.
Anyone else had luck mounting these long term in a less than perfect location? The alternative is cutting into metal line or just scrapping the filter idea altogether. FWIW, I just did the new pan filter in March, so this isn't essential, just added filtration.
