An internally cooled gas turbine engine turbine vane has an outboard shroud and an airfoil extending from an outboard end at the shroud to an inboard end. A cooling passageway has an inlet in the shroud, a first turn at least partially within the airfoil, a first leg extending from the inlet inboard through the airfoil to the first turn, and a second leg extending from the first turn. A dividing wall is in the passageway and has an upstream end in an outboard half of a span of the airfoil and has a plurality of vents. The vane may be formed as a reengineering of a baseline configuration lacking the dividing wall.
