Is there one of these floating around? I cannot find one. I'm going to delete my mounted oil cooler, possibly change some things...I just need to know which hoses go where. Thanks

Well, I'm not really aware of any "cooling system diagrams". But why in the world would you want to delete an oil cooler? It costs you nothing and keeps your oil from getting too thin.

What engine? I'd worry more about the oil getting too hot than too thin (to a point). Post a picture, not sure what all you are going to "change things".
Like said, why delete it.

Hot oil is thin oil. One of the big reasons to cool it is to help keep viscosity.

I'm deleting it to make room in the engine bay for other items, i.e. different header/turbo setup.

I've got a 2.3 turbo engine in there. I've removed the Oil Cooler from every one of these engine I've had (dozens) and it's never caused a bit of problems with my oil. I'm not worried about that, I just want to simplify the cooling system.

Where do the heater core hoses go on a stock setup (my ranger was already removed when I got it). I know the lower radiator hose is going to the water pump, and the upper hose to the thermostat...but where do I tie in the heater core hoses...and does the 93 Ranger 2.3 setup have an overflow tank for the radiator?
