Hi,
Can any of you knowledgable folk give me some advice on making up and routing oil pipes for my turbo installation. I know most oil feeds will link up to the oil pressure sender, but on a Duratec the sender is on the inlet side of the engine, and the turbo is, of course, on the exhaust side. Its no big deal to run a line around the engine to get to it, but is there an easier/neater way? Can I drill and tap a feed from the exhaust side of the block or head? Where would be a good high oil pressure location for this be?
Also, what size line would be appropriate for the feed? I was thinking dash 4 with banjo fittings either end.
For the drain, I was thinking a large bore (maybe 12mm ID) rubber tube to the sump, with a weld in hose tail fitting at the sump end. Should the oil drain enter the sump high or low, or does it make no difference?
Sorry - that's a lot of questions. Any advice would be most appreciated
