Blown Oil Line

[FellowTraveler]

I had used Eaton 8-AN reusable steel fittings, adapters and the best braided hose available when I did my lines to the oil cooler and did a remote filter bypass. You can not skimp in this area because it could cost you dearly when the engine fails do to inferior hoses/fittings & fire sleeve is required when hoses are near the exhaust. IMO hose rated for 500 degrees is best bet while using pure synthetic oil as it will take much more heat than dino oil before failure.

Oil cooler lines from Leroy Diesel are awesome. Should look into them.

I have Leroy's oil cooler lines already. The issue was on bypass filter hoses.
