More questions....they just seem to keep coming up at this point.
Why, when we spend over $20K on an engine are there aluminum oil lines??
Fuel lines we spend a fortune on and we can shut off. Oil will keep pumping if the fan is turning...yet they are done in cheap soft fast to burn aluminum??? Why not stainless or sleeved?
Doesnt this seem goofy? An oil fire would not be fun and my oil return lines were actually leaky at the rubber to aluminum transition when shipped. I tightened the clamps up but this just seems like a weak spot. No?
