oil return too tight for fitting
anybody have any advice on getting my silicone return on to my fitting (from turbo and then im assuming the oil pan will be a pain too) It goes on partly but i cant get it to just seal. Should be leak proof if i ever get it. I lubed it up but no luck.

Re: oil return too tight for fitting
Make sure its the correct size hose for those fittings. If they are correct, lubing the ends of the hose and the fittings is the best solution. You want that hose over the fitting atleast a 1/2" before tightening down the worm-drive clamp around it (assuming thats how yours secures). That should seal.
