oil lines
oil lines
ok so how do i take the oil lines off the motor. the ones on top. they have like this metal piece with like four dots and then the nut and then it comes off i think but i cant fit a wrench in between the space. and one more thing, the hose the has four hoses that then like merge into one thats connected to the oil lines, is that just a vacuum and wat would happen if i one of them broke off and anyone no where i could get that piece besides the dealer lol. sorry for all the questions i just have very little time to finish my car b4 i go back to school
The large vacuum hose that splits into 4 smaller hoses can be replaced with standard vac lines if yours are old and worn out. Just keep the splitter puck.
To undo the oil inectors, soak them with WD-40 for awhile before trying to spin them out. Get a 14mm wrench on the nut (between injector top and the oil feed line), and hit the wrench with a rubber mallet or something similar. Just be very very careful with the oil lines; especially when breaking the nuts loose. I'd suggest taking off all of the support brackets and unbolting them from the oil metering pump to give them some freeplay. You may get lucky and be able to loosen the injectors by hand without smacking the wrench, but usually they're seized in place.
If you can't get the wrench in there at all, remove the LIM to get better access to both sets of oil injectors.
