Oil lines going to radiator

Did you use barbed fittings? You can do whatever you want its your car.

The two oil lines connected at the radiator normally are for transmission oil cooling either way there will be two lines one in one out.. If you are sure it's engine oil you can remove the line cap both connecting fittings.BE absolutely sure They are not to the transmission. Oil from the transmission is pink or smells bad when dirty.

That's the oil filter cooler seal. My car did the same thing; poured a quart of oil out on the ground in about a minute while I was looking for the source of the leak.

There's a box with radiator fluid going through it mounted between the oil filter and the block to cool the oil. It's got a large o-ring to seal it, and when that seal goes, it just *pours* oil out. Take the oil filter off and you'll see a large nut. take off the nut and the cooler will slide off - you can do that without removing the fluid lines.

The seal is between the block and the cooler and will be very obvious when it's bad; mine was missing a big chunk out of one side. Popped a new seal in, put it back together and haven't had a problem with it since.

The oil lines going to the radiator is your transmission cooler lines, you will look for a smaller radiator and its connections, usually connected using an oil filter adapter.

The Oil filter "housing" is not only that, it has a small oil cooler that uses the radiator coolant circuit to reduce the oil temps. It is easy to change, but not as easy to get as it is not a commonly sold ?tem. Is goes to the engine block with a stub threaded nipple and large nuts. Amclaussen.

if you get under the car on the driver side were the oil filter is and look were the filter screw onto the motor,if you see 2 large lines coming from the plate that the filter screws onto going to the front of the motor and attach to the lower rad then you have an engine oil cooler in the radiator.there will be lines that come from the transmission to the radiator that are considerably smaller.

Warm the vehicle first you may have to jack it up but you don't have to get the tires off to ground. With the vehicle off in park and the parking brake on and you should caulk the rear wheels with apeice of wood 2x4 4x4.Get a wrench that fits vary tight a box wrench is best you don't want to damage the head of this bolt the oil pan drain plug bolt. Loosen the drain plug so you can turn it with your fingers then put your oil pan under the plug and take it out all the way so the oil goes into the pan. Let it drain 10 minutes or so you can be working on getting the oil filter off. Depending where to filter is mounted on the bottom of the block or if you have remote oil lines that usely go the the bottom of the radiator where there will be a small axess door. You will need an oil filter wrench or strap wrenches work well to lossen the filter but don't remove until the oil is done draining from the engine. When the draining slows to a drip clean and install the oil drain plug don't try to over tighten it will have a gasket or seal you don't to over compress this gasket wipe clean with a rag. Then slide your oil pan under the filter and unscrew by hand this will get a little messy sohave a rag with you. You won't get a lot of oil that comes out of the engine but the filter will be full of oil and much heavyer then to new one. Try to flip it over so to oil goes into the pan then you can get the pan old filter out of the way clean where the new filters base gasket will contact wipe with the rag . Put a small amount of oil on the new filters base gasket you can stick your finger in the old oil and run it around the gasket screw it on by hand as tight as you can then tight en with your filter or strap wrench 1/4 turn Then put your new oil in read your oweners manual for engine capacity and look for with the filter because it will take more to fill the filter. Start check for oil leaks shut off check your oil on the dip stick there will be an opperating range over add oil and full you should be in the middle of that . Then pour the old oil in a container with a funnel and you can take to the auto parts store an dispose of it put the oil filter in the box the new one came in and your done as soon you take the vehicle down off the jack

Oil cooler lines that lead to your radiator or to a cooler mounted in front of radiator.The hoses are quick couplers with o-rings so there is no way to tighten. I don't know why they would leek so often but they usualy go bad where the rubber line gets crimped to the steel line.Not sure if you can get a different oil filter block without the oil cooler line hook ups.This way you can eliminate the cooler lines,or remove the quick couplers at both ends of where your cooler lines hook up and just run hydraulic hoses in place of your coller lines.Where i live you can get hydraulic hoses made at hundreds of places but may not be so redily avalible where you are.

go to your local auto parts store and purchse a chiltons book for your vehicle it will show you all you need to know.
