There are supposed to be copper washers on both sides of the cooler.
Between the case and cooler and under the head of the bolts.

Subject: Auto trans cooler ATF leak

Hi List,

I replaced my '90 2.1L auto trans oil cooler and the new cooler leaks
ATF
where the cooler mates to the transmission case. The old cooler had no
gasket or sealant at the mating surface so I installed the new cooler in
the
same way. There are flat machine surfaces where the cooler mates to the
trans case but they leak ATF. If anyone knows how to eliminate this
leakage
please reply. I hope to finish this cooler job tomorrow so please reply
soon.

TIA,   John
