Help with Oil feed line...

[scottsee]

I'm kinda in a pickle. I've been loosing EBAY bids for a week now on Oil Feeds for my 14b to 2g oil filter houing. I'm moving in 9 days and I need to have this thing installed. I have the turbo & o2 gaskets, New turbo & o2 bolts and nuts. Just no Damn feed line.

my 14b I bought from a friend did not come with the banjo bolt.. If I go to the Mitsu parts department and get the Banjo bolt, can I use that bolt as a refrence for the size of banjo fitting to get at a local industrial hose shop? I think my best bet is just to get one made in the short time I have left.. Without spending 40 + 1-2day shipping!!!

Would somone PLEASEEEE post the type and size of the fitting I will need for this!! I dont think I need more then 18inches of steel braided line do I?

This is the type I would like to use. I'm really looking for a helping hand here. Thank-you very much for looking at my post.. And Yes I spend 20 minuets sifting through 2 years of "oil feed line" posts.

I'm looking for the Fitting size and type & length of hose

The banjo bolt for the turbo is a 12mm banjo, Mitsu part number: MS650013. The banjo bolt for taking oil from the head is a 10mm banjo, Mitsu part number: MF650102.

RRE sells a nice oil feed line and all the things you need to put in a 14b. This page has each piece singled out by part number and price. Part numbers change every once in a while, though, so double-check if you go to a dealership to order something.

Thanks.. I will be buying that banjo bolt, banjo fitting w/ 2 copper washers & the 4 copper washers for the water lines. My biggest question is what 90deg oil filter fitting I need for my 96 oil filter housing. I've read on dsmtalk it's a just an 3/8 90deg. I just need clarification on the fitting size...

I'm proabaly just going to buy the Banjo bolt and washers at the dealership and see if the indurstrial hose shop has the banjo fitting and for less $. Worst case seniro I'll just have to pay retail at the dealership for the banjo fitting and the Hose shop make the line...

Last time I used this Hose company I got a 3 foot stainless steel oil feed line with fittings to mount my Autometer electric oil pressure sender to the wirewall for $13...

You need a 3/8" NPT 90 deg. to -4an adapter. Summitt sells them for like $7.

One thing you ALSO need to know if you didn't - Be careful when removing the stock oil feed line!!! Keep in mind it looks crooked, but it's supposed to!! But the stock line will be stuck in there pretty good. Be careful also when you're around the oil filter housing cause that can surprisingly break fairly easily. Have fun!!

The stock line isn't stuck in the oil filter housing at all. You just have to use the right tools, use a 11mm flare nut wrench and take off the little fitting inside the larger fitting. I imagine you were trying to take off the larger fitting with the small fitting still in it, and that is tough and won't work. Then you take off the big fitting with a regular wrench. You will round out the entire smaller fitting if I didn't use a flare nut wrench. It's rather simple. Just do one at a time and it won't be difficult.
