Question on winterizing 5.8 Cobra CAN'T FIND OIL COOLER!!

[SpartanBoater]

A newbie here in process of winterizing a 1993 Four Winns 215 with the 5.8 cobra and OMC outdrive. The owners manual says : " Remove the water hose from the OIL COOLER" I CANNOT FIND THE OIL COOLER!!! Anyone???
Any other tips for winterizing would be appreciated!!!!

It's on the back of the engine.... IF, you have power steering. If you have manual steering, you won't have one. Either way, just follow the cooling water hose from the transom shield forward. It would be in it.

My dads 1989 Ford Cobra had an oil cooler and a power steering cooler. Both cracked last year and were a nightmare to replace due to the location. As Don says follow the hoses. On my Dads, the power steering cooler was on the left side of the motor next to the oil pan. The engine oil cooler, as mentioned was in the back. His was tucked in way behind the motor.
