So, I was all jazzed to pull the motor in one, but I am pretty limited on tools, and overlooked the rear oil cooler line that goes into the oil pan. herpaderp.

WHAT THE HELL TAKES THAT OFF?!!? I know it has two copper crush washers, so I went right ahead and cleaned off the bolt head with a rag to get most of the excess oil off, and grabbed a 15/16 standard box end wrench. No room for a ratchet, and no room for a breaker bar. the head is SLIGHTLY rounded off now, and I really do not want to screw it up further.


Any Ideas guys?

 

There IS room for a breaker bar even with an adaptor on the end.. Though there isn't a lot of swing room. Btw, I always do this from the top and I managed to get it off in a parking lot one night.. [one of the lines had failed on me]

Breaker bar and a 23MM socket are what you need. Don't try crescent wrenches or odd sizes...

Oh also, just for reference, it goes into the rear iron of the engine.

 

A wrench can take it off if you double wrench. Generally not a widely approved method, but it works.

 

Thanks a lot guys!
