hi

sorry for the poor images and descriptions :p but any idea where to get replacement oil lines? these run from under the air pump, probably the oil pump but im not going out to double check. its too late :Hammer and connect to the inlet manifold? there brittle plastic and have snapped :(

one end has banjo bolts the other is slightly flaired
the proper name would be of help too

thanks for bearing with me! :Snoring

those are the OMP lines and do go very brittle. Do not use any old tubing as it will go soft with the heat. I replaced mine with braided hose.

I may have some of the braided stuff left but you will need to have your old banjo's and you will also need a bit of heat to weld them to banjo union (just gives a better seal for the plastic. You will also need your old clamps,they are important.

I will see what I have and cost,but it will not be much.
