fully functional for every 1996 and newer GM
vehicle. For a limited time, the MDI 2 (ACDelco

Hayden® Automotive's new internal pressure by-pass coolers allow the vehicle's transmission to reach optimum operating temperature quickly by routing the fluid around the
by-pass channel of the cooler until the fluid
temperature increases.
"The patented design of Hayden pressure by-pass coolers help vehicles in colder
climates reach proper operating temperatures
faster, which improves fuel economy and helps
reduce friction of internal components," said
Ron Miller, product and marketing manager
of specialty products, Hayden Automotive.
"Hayden's internal pressure by-pass design incorporates an integrated valve that eliminates
the need for external valves and additional
plumbing at installation."
The Hayden by-pass series is available in
four sizes (part numbers: 696, 697, 698, 699)
to fit a wide range of applications, from compact cars to class "A" motorhomes. The cooler
brackets come pre-drilled for easy mounting
and include all hardware necessary for installation. All coolers are 100 percent pressure tested
at the factory. For more information talk with
a local account sales manager or visit www.
