Braided hose for oil line?

Brantel · #1 05-10-2013, 07:37 AM

I am planning to swap from a FP to a CS soon and I need to know the length and other details on what kind of flex hose to purchase for the oil line. I want to go with the flex line.

I have a Narrow Deck O-360.

So what are the specs I need and where do I get one?

I have a friend who went with solid line and has a flex line (unused I believe) with integral firesleeve (brown in color) sitting in his hangar. It is the same flex line I use on my I0-360. It was supplied with the Superior XP engine. It is a bit longer then one would expect if running under the cylinders but according to Superior it allows running over the top of the engine as well. Are you interested?

Brantel,

I got the line from my friend. I was mistaken about the integral firesleeve, it has the red silicone type of firesleeve. It is 40" long stainless steel braided teflon with straight ends (stainless steel b-nuts). It has never been used. Supplied by Superior on their early XP engines. They eventually changed to the integral firesleeve type, that is what I have on my Superior IO-360.

It's yours if you want it at no charge, just PM me your shipping address and I will ship it out USPS.

Just trying to help another RV'r out.
