Talking Replacement for Oil hose under near battery

Ill post a picture of the part later. 1986 RX7 Non Turbo I need to replace it but i am having a hard time figuring out what it is called and where to buy the replacement.

(My name is James BTW)that intro post taking way to long to review :P


The Hose i see seems to be the stock oem somewhat braided hose kind of thick and there is a metal hose directly under it. Runs under the Air pulley to engine diagonally from underneath battery.

I believe your referring to the oil cooler lines

Cheapest fix would be to buy a used one from a member on here, or buy a new set from www.corksport.com

Don't drive it with it leaking if it is an oil cooler hose, i did and it got WORSE fast, mine spewed out all 6 quarts in matter of minutes

You never put your name in 2 Intro's so that is why your "anonymous Intro" was never posted.

Used oil cooler lines in the classifieds section are pretty inexpensive. I sold mine for $20 as I had converted to 10AN a few years ago. New lines are quite pricey from Mazdatrix, which is why most owners do the AN conversion and run braided steel lines. RotaryResurrection usually has a few sets of stock lines on hand at any given time. Just be sure to use NEW copper crush washers at each connection.
