Oil cooler lines

[Williebeaman]

Ok so I think I’ve figured out my leak that keeps everything under my engine thinly coated in oil is the oil cooler lines. I didn’t even know I had an oil cooler. But it looks like at one point in the line is a soft material and that’s where it leaks from. How hard are these to replace?

Easy to replace but I'm not sure if they are easy to find.

I installed a new set of oil cooler lines a couple of years ago. Where the lines connect at the oil filter adapter are in a tight position, and need to be tightened with the oil lines that connect to the cooler itself pointed straight up. The cooler side of the lines need to be pushed into the oil cooler tube flare first, and then screw the line fittings on. You will know when the oil line tubes have pushed in when you feel a small "pop" of the tube seating into the oil cooler flare.

Found on amazon for $25 each luckily not to expensive

Amazon and Summit have the Dorman brand for about $60 for both.
