Yes. You will likely need to use two TSB's: TSB 07-23-14 to repair the cooler and system and TSB 08-23-1 to address severe cooling system contamination. I would also contact the Hot-Line and review it with them and ask for further repair recommendations such as replacing ALL rubber hoses and testing the EGR cooler which may have been damaged as a result.

 

I just finished up an oil cooler repair on a Econoline bus. One thing that made life easier was that I flushed the cooling system before disassembly getting the oil/coolant whip looser than it was. I used floor soap initially, then post repair I used the recommended 3 gallons of Simple Green and then another flush with the iron cleaner.
