Installed a Hayden 679 in series with the original cooler, tapped the line closest to the center of the SUV, or right side looking down from the top. Temps run about 140 on Torque Pro. You can get it in there without taking off the front bumper cover ands grill if you work at it. Working on installing a remote filter, but every time I connect it, it starts heating up to 180, thought I might have it plumbed backwards, but I switched the lines and it does the same thing. I should probably be using a NAPA 1622 or a Wix 51622, but I just stuck a Motorcraft FL-1 on it for now since I had a couple in the shop, I see a lot of them using Fram PH8A, and that's what I used to use on my Explorer remote filter and never had any problem with it. Could the Motorcraft filter have too low of a flow rate?
