I have an AN-16 Tee between my 914-6 oil tank and the 3.2 oil cooler. The AN16 cap is tough to get a wrench on to change the oil. I was looking at changing the AN-16 Cap to a QuikValve. Has anyone done it? I remember seeing a picture somewhere. Does anyone have the part numbers?
Thanks for the help!! |

I have an AN-12 Tee between my 914-6 oil tank and the 3.2 oil cooler. Today it has a hard to remove cap for changing the oil. I was looking at changing the AN-12 Cap to a QuikValve. Has anyone done it? I remember seeing a picture somewhere. Does anyone have the part numbers? Thanks for the help!! "Today it has a hard"? OK. The Cap'n |

You probably got better grades in English than I did. I meant the AN-12 Cap is a pain in the ass to remove. It's tucked way up high behind the rocker and its hard to get a wrench on it. I was looking for a better solution to change the oil and the Qwik Valve looked like the way to go.

AN should be to adapt to anything. I would say all you would need to do is find out what threads those quick drain thingys come in and order a AN12 to (whatever) from Mcmaster carr or Grainger industrial, or even just a local hydraulic shop. How about just putting a AN12 short hose on it and let it hang lower so you can get to it?
