Re: Front Cowl Drain Lines

Ultimately I took it out of the car. It was so full of crap it took a good swing to get it all out... Then the glorious process of threading it back through, and getting the zip tie back through the holes. I did it all one handed and blind... What a crappy job.

Cooler Oil Hose O-Ring Replacement

Hi All,
This might be somewhere else, but I can't find it... I am replacing a leaking O-Ring on the cooler hose at the radiator fitting. The new ring is obviously still "large" and is not going into the housing with any ease. Are there any tricks to getting the new o-ring in? Grease? I would guess ...
