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 |

Then you aren't locked into the length of the metric hose if your building a non stock setup. |

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. Attached thumbnail(s)
