I change my oil feed line direct from the oil filter, and when i tryed to block the hole where the stock oil feed line was (in the engine block) and when i put the bolt in it i fu*ked up my engines block Thread :cry: is it possible to fix that? and how much does it cost??
Now i got oil all over my engine :notgood:
 
iam not understanding what you are saying...the stock oil feed line comes from the cylinder head not the block. and it really depends how bad you stripped it. you can taper it if its not to bad.
 
yeah,that oil feed line comes from cylinder head :thumb:
i got the bolt in that hole and i tryed to tape it,i put the silicone around the bolt and the oil still leaking :cry:
what else can i do????
 
I would recommend JB weld, I love that stuff and it almost always works. However, stay away from silicone, no way it will stand up to the heat of the block and you will just end up with a fried motor from oil starvation when it pisses out everywhere.
