    What car is it? we fitted up a oil cooler from a aw11 to my old car and put some heat sheilding around the reservoir and never had a problem, have a look around at the wreckers they should have some coolers sitting around from plenty of different cars.

    Sure that it's overheating? Heat wouldn't cause pissing before there had been smell & lots of smoke.
