Default Nah...you don't want to do that.

The worst thing for a mechanic is trying to finish someone else's work, and trying to figure out what the hell is going on. You'll get it....just take a break and relax. Now that you have the lines figured out, what else is wrong?

Default I can't screw on the oil supply line to the engine next to the oil filter..

Yippers gave me a free phone consultation.. But I'm here still trying to screw that steel line in.. ugh..
I have my mind set on all that fun.. **thinking postive ** when I have the kit installed..

Default

that is one of the toughest parts of the job. Is the kit in and bolted to the engine yet?

Default Took me a long time too. Just be patient and keep on trying

Gotta use a crows foot attached to a universal joint to do it.

Default That's it.. I'm taking off the manifold. I'll get a gasket at the dealer tommorrow.

What I did was unbolts both of the attachment off the oil supply line. Now I can't get either of them in. I'm going to move on to the rest of the install and leave that for last.
