Title: possible to bend over the Oil drain Hard line?
Post by: Prospeeder on December 08, 2005, 09:45:11 PM
The line that the oil return goes onto, not on the turbo, but on the block side, mines like Bent or somthing, i dunno, but its pushing out my DIS plug and ii needa bend it back over, what connects it to the oil pan? is it frail? Can i just push it over slowly and bend it back?

It has a little bit of bendability.. but BE CAREFUL. VERY slowly move it, and not too much. I fucked mine up pretty good on the TGP but then again I used a crowbar to pry it out of the way so I could get a better look at the newly formed hole in my block.

From what I can tell/remember, it's only attached by two studs on the side of the oil pan. They're NOT bolts that go all the way through.
