    Oops...

    I made a major screwup. I did my 120k service on my '91 VR4, thought I did alright, as I started up the car, no leaks, runs great. I go to fill it up and I've made a breadcrumb trail of oil from my house to the station (2 blocks). I get back and look to see where it is leaking from, and is running down overtop of the filter (not from the filter though). I think I may have busted the oil cooler bypass line (at least that is what I think it is... rather large bolt coming out of the side of the oil filter housing w/ banjo fitting going back towards block). Does anyone know where I can get a replacement line, or what I can use to replace it (something possibly AN style?)

    How about you sending the partsyou stole from at least 2 people back then try to get some advise?

    Help them, for they know not that which they do not know!

    I'm sorry, If someone has problem with me, then they need to say so. Any parts that I have been sent from members to me have been sent back to them. If you're here to start shit, then you had better not be talking hearsay.

    No shit talkin. No evidence of returned parts in the posts anywhere. There is no room for BS on this forum. If you have returned all parts then I applaud you. If you have not GTFO. It is that simple.

    Well, I have no proof of returning the parts, because I didn't take photos of shipping them off, who does that. You seem to know who it was, why don't you ask them.

    Also, kind of hard to post when you're banned.

    OK, since this has been cleared up in my machining post... does anyone have any suggestions for my oil problem?

    As far as I can tell, it's the cooler bypass valve, there is a banjo coming off of it and going towards the pass side of the block (I haven't jacked up the car to look where it goes, too dark when I get home right now).

    It was a HUGE bolt, facing the front of the car when everything is bolted on (Where you have A circled, but rotated 90 deg towards the front of the vehicle). This is on a 91 VR4, so IDK if they did something different at any point.

    I am not here to start a bunch of crap, but you do have a plenum cover of mine I lent you to use for schematics to cut custom covers for myself and for others in the forum in general. Been a few years at least now and nothing, no replies or anything on that !!!!
