G'day,

I measured the tubing and nuts on the Kingsley's radiator and compared the measurements to inverted flare nut drawings on McMaster -
Carr.

Transmission cooler 3/8" inverted flare nuts:

Engine oil cooler 1/2" inverted flare nuts:

https://www.mcmaster.com/#6432t138/=1a46cgx

I will buy nuts and make up short pieces of tube that will mate with the radiator and the male QD's that come with the HotFlush
machine.

I will instruct the transmission shop to flush the contamination that collects on the HotFlush machines filter screen into a plastic
food box so I can spread it on a piece of white paper and examine it. If feasible I'll photograph it as well.

I wish I was still working at NASA as we had microscopes that we would put contamination cleaned out of the Portable Life Support
System and examine it to determine what it was and its size.

Regards,
Rob M.
