Allan I already asked what kind of switch to use but need to know if one of the switches you provide with the kits is large enough to operate two EZ-Cool doors together. I'm running out of space on the switch panel and wanted to control them both together anyway.

... Yes! The switch is perfect for two EZ-Cool Flaps, and a 1 amp fuse or breaker is all that is needed to protect them. Thanks, Allan...

does anyone have a pic of the wiring they did on the back of the switch?
Im not sure if i need to actually solder a small wire between the black and red poles (the ones that cross over the middle pole in the diagram. or is this done internally in the switch?

yeah.. im not a good electronics person...

... This is a drawing of the back of the switch! Just follow the drawing exactly and solder in the jumpers.
Thanks, Allan...

Allen,
Do you have a picture of the switch that you can post? Or what is the dimension of the switch on the back side of the panel? I have very limited space in my panel and was wondering if the LED/Switch are part of the same item or two separate thing that can be mounted at different locations.

...The switch measures .500"X .525"X .560" deep, very small. The LED is separate, measures .125" and can be installed wherever you desire. Thanks, Allan...

Thanks. I was puzzeld by the drawing as it has specific measurements between the LED and the switch.

With regard to the oil temp question, I recently installed a 0 time O360 in my 6-A. The oil temps had been at 240. I took the oil cooler to a radiator shop and had it flushed which brought the temp to 230. Then installed 2 cowl flaps and now the oil temp never goes above 215.

... What oil cooler do you have? Where is the oil cooler mounted and can you post a photo. You should be able to get the oil temps below 200 without too much effort. Thanks, Allan...
