Hi All

I'm in the process of fitting one of these Fumoto quick drain valves and need to get some braded AN oil line's made up

Please can someone tell me the size of the male thread coming from a stock -6 oil tank, and also the size of the thread on the engine oil cooler - it's a 3.2 Carrera engine.

They're both on the car at the moment so can't measure them.

Thanks

Chris

Thanks Ben but just to be clear 30mm from the tank, 26mm off the engine oil cooler?

30 from tank to oil cooler and 26 from engine scavenge to oil tank return.

Sorry to Labour the point but are they 30mm at both ends of the oil tank to engine oil cooler line on a 3.2 ? (That was the one I'm interested in)
Thanks

Yes

If you want to run A/N hoses, you can get metric to A/N adaptors for the metric fittings. Then you aren't locked into the length of the metric hose if your building a non stock setup.

Ok great. Cheers

what's the internal diameter on the oil line to the engine cooler on a 3.2 ?

Just getting around to doing this job and selecting the right Fumoto drain valve prior to taking everything apart.

Also, can someone advise me if I have the oil flow right? Not sure I do (always learning!)

cheers.
