Default Oil Retun Lines SUCK!

Just Venting!

I had an oil leak so I used that parts list for the earl's stainless steal lines. Every thing was going great. I put the turbo back in got ready to connect the lines, but the DAMN downpipe is in the way and i cant get the fitting to go in! So now im off to retap the pan.

Hahaha! How relevant in my life! My car's been down for 3 months all because I am burned out as hell over my car!

When I pulled the oilpan to fix an oil pressure issue <making too much> I replaced the pan, and found that it had a hole from bottoming out and it was dripping slowly. I go to put it all back together, and the drainback isn't fitting around the downpipe! WTF?!

Dumbass me. I put the drainback on first, when my drainback actually goes around the downpipe. DUH.

Now 3 months later, I've sold the wheels off the car to pay off a debt, and it's ALMOST ready to run again!

DUH!!!

luckily i never had a problem with a leaky oil pan, i have a bad *** welder but to make you guys feel better i did mismeasure the first earls line so i had to go back and cut it shorter, other then that it was a simple install.
