Im in the process of getting my new motor put together and noticed that one of the oil cooler line fittings is messed up. Its the shorter line that goes to the front cover of the engine. Below is a pic of it. Anyways, dont want to get a complete new hose, is there any other way I can hook this up? Maybe new fittings or something?

 

Hm...says the pic is too large to post..

 

pic?

 

no pic, might try getting an old one from a junk yard and taking it to a hydraulics shop. Thats where i got my new lines from.

 

It says my pic is too large to attach, how do I resize it?

 

use paint or photoshop.

 

I cant post the pic because it keeps coming up with invalid link

 

go to a junkyard w/ a mini hack saw, saw the hose in half and get the fitting out, took me about 15-30 minutes w/ a mini hacksaw (pocketknife), and sockets. Make sure you have vice grips.

are you talking about the double sided fitment right?

 

I guess you are trying to fix your hose because a bugget reason. I am on a bugget also but if you are getting a new motor don't you want a fresh and trouble free car?? Like no oil leaks and stuff?? i couldn't really effore new oil lines yet but i am saving money for it. I don't want to redo my job.

 

ok, i found one. Now I can continue on with putting the engine in. Too bad I cant get pics up, she is a beauty.
