SS oil feed problem helppp!

[2GEEZEY]

Okay so im just about done with my turbo install and i go to screw in the oil feed to the oil filter housing.

The part that spins freely ( did spin freely) at the end of the line does not spin. I tried wrenching it in the oil filter housing adapter and it wont thread.

what should i do here?

It may not be the right threads, re-check the part number from the store you got the line from.

So your saying that now it doesnt spin freely? Did something get caught in it somehow? Try lubing it up

should be 3/8" bspt

should be 3/8" bspt

Right so if he tried to thread in a Npt thread it would start and go then it would stop as the taper begins because the pitch is different on British pipe thread but its real close to national pipe thread, so i probably got cross threaded.

Are you referring to the female threaded portion on the end of the line?

A picture would be super helpful here...
