600,000 Mile GMC Sierra Leaked Oil EVERYWHERE *Replacing And Deleting Oil Cooler Lines*
Вставка
- Опубліковано 31 лип 2021
- The 600,000 mile GMC Sierra is running strong, but it's developed a very common oil leak and we already had the parts in the shop to fix it. The oil cooler lines typically develop a leak around the crimp that holds the rubber line to the metal. Apparently the easy fix is to cut the metal back a bit and replace it with some hydraulic line and a couple hose clamps. If you do that it will prevent you from hours of fighting a very poorly engineered "quick" disconnect. After reading about the fix for a minute after we did hours of work I found out the fix is to delete the oil cooler housing and go back to the original style the 350s came with. 1 trip to O'Reillys and 20 minutes later the lines were gone, we were able to run a bigger filter with more surface area, the oil leaks are gone, and as a bonus oil changes are way easier with the filter pointing down!

It's not an oil leak but automatic frame protection spray.
It's like my Saturn's PCV aka "Auxiliary Intake Oiling System"
It’s why so many old VWs survive.
My truck frame and underside looks like I have a big oil leak because I undercoat with Fluid Film.
@@jlambo9757 I used Fluid Film for the first time this past year. The most accurate description of the stuff is in fact "Waxy Goop". It is neither a nicely flowing fluid, nor an even film. But, other than that it seems to work well.
All chevy owners knew this i thought 🤔
Just want to say THANKS for posting so much content. I hurt my back about a month ago and haven't been able to work on my car at all. Waiting for surgery on the 10th - and watching your videos and looking forward to your daily uploads has helped pass the time and made me forget about the pain for a bit. Anyway - thanks again! Looking forward to more videos!
Get well soon, Mike! Godspeed with the surgery!!
@@Gabe-ABNCW3 Thanks Gabe! I really appreciate it. CAN'T WAIT to get back in my car.
That truck is pretty clean considering the age and mileage.
pretty sure JR said it's had body work in a past video
Loads of rust
Frame looked pretty clean. Had all that oil to keep it from rusting😂
come to the south. things dont rust
I love that JR is never thwarted or gets annoyed (on camera at least.)
Some YT channels wouldn't show the "deleting" part....love that you show "whatever happens" that's worthy and also what not to do, or at least try not to do. Haha. On to the next 600k miles.
I love that you leave the things going wrong in the video. Because that's what its actualky like. Anytime i say this will be a simple fix, it is anything but simple.
I just did this to my 95 c3500 tbi350. Couldn't be happier. Oil pressure is exactly where it should be now. No more leaking, oil soaked hoses. Thank you for the video, boys! 🍻
The best actual "how to" DIY automotive repair channel on UA-cam and I'm being 💯
It is refreshing to see the problems you can experience even when you have a sweet garage and all the right tools at hand. Thank you!
When JR promised this oil cooler line swap was crazy. He was not kidding. Makes me feel better doing a rear differential seal replacement on my 07 Sierra wasn't quite crazy but not cheap to get right over the last 7 days.
I had to change the gasket on my oil filter housing before on my 1996 GMC Truck. If I remember rightly it wasn't that bad of a job.
These old trucks are worth saving instead of scrapping if possible.
Bypassed my 93 the same way after the dorman lines failed in 6 months,been fine for many yrs now and never ticks on cold start anymore,great oil pressure and she’s pushing 300,000 soon
I own 93 extended cab 2wd
Does it affects temperature? Or everything with that plays the same role just some improvement
is it ok to do the bypass even though i am living in las vegas where weather temp gets to 100+ degrees?
Always a pleasure to see a truck that is daily used and abused (well, not abused, but put to actual work) still going strong at 600,000. :-)
Why whenever I hear Dorman parts being used do I prepare for failure?
Because their junk. But sometimes their the only ones who make stuff for older cars. The Dorman AC lines I had to put on my third gen 4runner were the only option,, hope to god they last
@@TheMrLebaron I’ve actually opted to not replace parts when I found Dorman was the only option. Even their little plastic door clips are trash
I’m just here for the Dorman jokes.
@@uncleheide They are trash, but its been hitting 100+ F here lately. So it was between hating Dorman ( which I do ) or sweating through my clothes. I picked the " Dorman hopefully it holds up " option. Paid something like 700 dollars for a Evap Core, Hoses, Condenser, compressor ect. Thats WAY better than the 4 grand Toyota wanted. I know Dorman sucks, but sometimes you gotta choose
@@uncleheide Rougly 1700 dollars for the full job. Blows nice and cold. I just Pray Dorman holds up
"This took all day, all day long"
That's how these kinds of repairs go for normal people.
1 hour restoration flip
I have a 1995 GMC Sierra K1500 with the 5.7L too. I had to replace the O-rings and the gasket on the oil filter adapter last month. The biggest issue I had was finding the right O-rings for the cooler lines. I eventually had to settle on some A/C O-rings simply because they were the closest match to the old O-rings.
I don't know how well they'll last me in the long run, but for now I can run it without worrying about dripping oil from the adapter.
As you said in the description, quick-disconnects do suck and take a long-ass time to take out and by the time you take them out, you realize you broke them. 😠
I wouldn't do the oil cooler delete bc I made it work, but I didn't do the exact same repair you did.
Was fun as hell watching you do something that I'm (for the most part) familiar with anyways, keep up the good videos.
OEM oil cooler lines and connectors are still available for that truck.
Who’s wallet is buying the parts? Pull out your wallet and buy the parts if you want them to use oem
Casually walks to driver side of R35, "never seen one of those before", cuts scene
Sus.
🤔
He did a post somewhere (Instagram stories I think?) Where he was putting out his old gtr for sale because he was going to buy his dream gtr. Also he's done a post somewhere with the white gtr and his white ducati. So yeah it's probably his.
CrrrrrrrrrrAzy! 😉
Patiently waiting to see the gtr video….. can I come back down and drive it again. Already miss it. 😂😅
@@brandonbell9087 I drove it home. Saw 180. Lol.
It sure is nice to see people with a lot more experience have "that kind of day" just like I have!
That truck has almost flown to the moon 3 times!
Want to do the lines and gaskets on my 93K1500 Blazer. Man I’d love a garage like yours. Beautiful
This is the "fix the lines, wait no, delete all that junk" video 😂
Get the oil lines from the dealer, otherwise they leak
@@WatchJRGo just replace the cab corners!
that way you can learn bodywork
it's not that bad
You shouldn't make people think that AC filters are bad. I worked for GM garages for many years, and they've always been good. I believe in using OEM parts.
Ac delco been good to me, I do use Wix in my corvette but my van ac delco
They'd have a long way to go to prove to me that any aftermarket filter is any better than OEM.
7:48 The double entendre is at Mighty Car Mods levels here...
I like the advice you made in 11:26 😅. I have a 97 gmc, I have done a lot of work by my own after I got tired dealing with the mechanics, this one is a great video, after watch this video I might replace my oil cooling lines.
I always use transmission assembly gel for any seals stuffs magic
I did the exact same job 3 days ago on my dad's 93 and i was looking for.the fitting for like 2 complete days, the good thing is that now is not leaking oil! It was a pain in the ass
A jrgo and auto auction rebuilds video all within a hour? Hell yeah!!
I learned very early on NEVER to say something akin to the following phrases:
1) This won't take long at all
2) I will be done in an hour
3) That's a half-hour job - tops
4) I have plenty of time to do this little job before.....
5) This is going to be an easy job
6) Just give me five minutes with it....
7) How hard can it be? (Jeremy Clarkson owes me a LOT for the screw-ups THAT one has caused!)
8) All we have to do is......
9) Don't worry about it.
The times I have been caught out by these are too many to count..... Murphy sits on my shoulders and usually the first thing I hear after inadvertently using one is "Oh yeah? THAT sounds like a challenge! Challenge accepted!".....and he wins again.
You're in GOOD company, my friend!
Literally, this is the best Chevy/GMC pickup truck out there.
Now, Idk if this was all original or not when it comes to the transmission and/or the engine.
I broke my oil cooler on my 90 Suburban. Looped it til I got home but noticed my oil ran hotter, which lowered my oil PSI when hot. Oil cooler recommended.
Dorman, bringing you crappy parts for 50 years.
not as bad as car-done. pun intended
Are we gonna see your buddy Thomas anytime soon? Thanks for these fire videos JR. They are such a great anxiety reliever. Keep it up. Huge fan here dude
Hey JR, if isn't too much to ask... next time you are filming what lines / parts you changing etc. Could you add a red arrow to show exactly what you are trying to film? This could just be me but it's kinda hard to see what you are pointing at when the camera is out of focus. Thanks for the videos tho
Hmm a new Nissan in the JRGO universe....farewell R32 idk if you would be missed 😂
Got rid of my 95 Tahoe with the 5.7 and upgraded to a 99 NBS Silverado with the 5.3, everything about the 99 is way better than the 95 was. The 95 is also pre OBD 2 by 1 year.
Onto 1M miles! Also what an epic Godzilla in the lot!
Just did this conversation on my 99 Tahoe. Too late though. I was heading home and one of the cooler hoses blew. Lost oil pressure and spun 3 bearings. Now I'm rebuilding it. 🙃
Gotta love GM pickups. My buddy who is a contractor has a bunch of them still in use with his company. 2003 duramax with 400,000 miles. 2000 3/4 ton 6.0L with 330,000 miles. 2000 3/4 ton with 280,000 miles. The duramax he bought new, but the gas 3/4 tons he buys at about 300,000 miles for $2000-$3000. I thought that is a lot of money to pay for high mileage ones like that, but he is not afraid of them.
You can just bypass the oil cooler by unbolting the oil filter adapter and screwing the filter directly on the engine. You gotta move the fitting out of the adapter to the engine. But you can fix this for free. Ive done it twice on 4.3's and it works great. You dont need the oil cooler.
So there's no need for the adapter?
I had trouble with every QD fitting on my 95 Suburban. I deleted every one I had to touch using fittings and hose clamps. So far our 99 Suburban hasn't had any of those issues
Wow that's a ton of miles, I had a 95 Sierra that finally gave up after 424,000. I ran all Amsoil synthetic fluids and lubes. It's sitting in my garage now, I might rebuild it one day but for now I have my 78 Golden Eagle Jeep and 2018 Sierra.
replaced some oil cooler lines on my old 98 suburban for the same failure. also replaced the disconnect fittings on the block so it would have fresh seals there as well. never leaked after that and no running low on oil either.
I just bought OEM ACDelco oil cooling lines that came with everything I needed for a 97 GMC Sierra which were an exact fit as I didn't have to click anything on but bolt on.
I had a 95 Blazer that the oil cooler lines failed on at the crimp. I ground off the crimps and replaced the hose.
The 06 chevy van we have at work completely blew the crap plastic snap on oil cooler lines last year. It left a line of oil and a huge puddle under it from puking everywhere. I noticed a rattle as he pulled into the parking lot and told him that it probably was low on oil and I was going to check it out while he went in to get some lunch. I found a huge puddle and a line of oil leading from the truck. If he'd driven it any farther it probably would have locked up. Chevy truly does some stupid stuff with the lines and fittings that just do crap like we've both seen.
Just did this job on a 97 and didn’t have no where near this trouble…thank goodness
Blue filter could also indicate an ACDelco GM oil filter which aren't bad.
Am I the only one anxiously waiting for an update on the Aztek ?
What I ran into with oil lines and later trans lines on a 2002 Express 3500, here in the salt belt, is the ends swell up when they rot and do not come out. You end up cutting them off and change the fitting also. Which I did with salvage yard stuff.
On that van it had quick disconnects on both ends, a little clip like the one on your window crank handle holds them in place.
For whatever reason I don't think vans use the style on this truck, I also changed some on a 1991 and they were spin on on both ends, in multiple sections, I had a hard time finding lines for that one. But my 95 van, my first van, had a lot of one year only stuff so who knows. That one was a 1-ton van that for some reason had pickup type manifolds and converter (they dump about a 45' angle) instead of what the books said it should have (dump straight down between middle and end ports).
I gotta think that changing your fittings to the next style would be as simple as a trip to the junkyard and picking whichever end fittings you're comfortable with and using them on your filter housing. Or changing out the entire oil filter adapter.
Everybody loves oversize oil filters. Feels like a car care cheat code.
And I thought my 07 Corolla with 257,000 miles on it was a Survivor. Very nice
Thanks for the note about newer trucks. I have a 2010s GM truck and the oil cooler lines are leaking right now. I've been nervous to take it on myself due to the problems you faced of not being able to see what you're doing and also me being without some special tool. Makes me nervous.
my 95 S10 with 4.3 leaks from the oil cooler lines. it looks like that oil filter adapter is compatible with my engine. thanks JR!
"Easy breezy beautiful, cover girl" lmaoo
Gotta go for a million miles👊
Do you have to plug the cooler line holes in the rad when you do this mod? Thanks!
I miss my 1995 Z71 truck. Extended cab, full options, bought with 13,000 miles on it in early 1995 for $25K. I regret selling that truck.
It doesn't need a new bed for a dent. It is a truck. Those dents are battle scars and badges of honor.
Don't ya just love when a quick job turns into an all day job?!?!?!? Just makes you want to face palm yourself 😅
Swap da bed for step side cant wait to see it repaired new paint love obs i have one too
I'm disappointed JR didn't make his own lines.
Edit: he covered this! No need to brake those factory seals. But the new ones have a fool proof bolt that holds the lines on.
Edit: he covered that too. I guess I let him do his job.
Do not break that quick disconnect seal... it won't work again 💯
Ok. Could we get a better explanation of the final repair? I heard something about transmission line, and cutting something. Plus the oil adaptor. What was the new filter size?
Saturday must have been problematic GM truck day! 🥴🙃😂
self lubricating chassis system at its finest
that truck is pretty clean considering the age and mileage .... lol
You talked about upsizing the oil filter - are there rules of thumb to follow? Bigger is better from a more filter media perspective, and I have absolutely no issue with adding oil system capacity in that way, but is there such a thing as too big a filter if the space is there for it?

“WE GOT MORE PSI’s!” Lol
Ha dorman oil cooler lines..you'll be replacing those again soon. Lucky if they even fit in the first place.
APDTY just did a video like yesterday on this exact job for a '94 suburban, and all he had to do was press in the plastic clips to remove them, not use a quick disconnect. Got new adapter fittings too
Stp and wix oil filters are both made be champion
I fought mine changing them too but ultimately prevailed. I will say this ,as a longtime chevy truck guy that engines lasted longer after the coolers were added
My 95 suburban has 270k untouched.
If this was a 96 I think we would've had it the first try, the 95 is the worst quick disconnect design 😬
Its not so much the cooler as it is more frequent oil changes. My silverado is closing in on 300,000 and doesn't have an oil cooler in it. The cooler is more for heavy towing than it is normal driving.
@@CSXtrackworker yeah I wonder if they were trying to uprate their towing capacity towards the end of the GMT400 run and added it at that point
@@SteveBassen who knows with GM. It's weird what trucks have these and which ones don't. I've seen trucks with towing packages that didn't have the oil cooler and lines and trucks without the towing package that did have them. Normal driving in the summer my oil temp averages about 208 and going up the long mountain highway roads it'll jump to about 220 then cool down when back on flat road.
Ford's OBS oil cooler consisted of only 1 seal and coolant hoses. Never failed ever. All the trucks they failed to put a big transmission cooler on promptly failed though. Not sure if GM did the same. But to get the coolers on the Fords you had to have the towing or cooling upgrade package
“51069… heh nice” 😂😂
hope you spray cleaned every thing after your fixing.. now you'll beable to see where its leaking again.. was like it looked like it was leaking from every where... good job on what you did.. may be good for another 600000.....
Wow, it looks just like mine except I have the older model with the bad filter adapter and separate oil coolers... and i have a lot of stuff like just these things to do on it someday. That's the horrible quick connection they used on the water hose for the cab heat on the old thermostat housing, I deleted my leaking one for a normal barbed fitting and normal hose.
Hate those crimped lines. Yes I cut mine and used new hose and clamps years ago
I’d say anyone looking for an OBS to stay away from a 95, most parts 88-94 are interchangeable as well as 96-98, 95 is on its own for a lot of stuff
I know, I got 95 corvette, 95 g20 chevy van
“Thank you… Dorman.” Someone was bound to say it someday.
There’s a front crashed 91 white Silverado in Elk Grove,CA. Rust-free metal for Eric!
Was waiting for the FIGHT reference at 11:00.........Ready???Round 2, FIGHT!!
Just sold my 96.. amazing shape inside & out. ran perfect..... but rusty underneath...:(
Eric should join us on the GMT 400 forums online...
If John sang happy birthday to the president he'd be known as WatchJRMonroe
The crimps always failed. I found that if you bought new lines and recrimped them before installing the problem went away. I blamed manufacturer back then (2005ish).
The intro of your videos always just YELL through my house. Regardless of what volume my PC is at. I've begun just muting and skipping due to it
Awsome work and resolution process fellas 👍
Any issue with oil temp since you got rid of the lines? Ive got a Savana 3500 work van. I'm considering the delete but it does get up to 100° in my area.
Marking its territory. Not marking it's territory. Yours, ours, theirs, its. No apostrophe. It's means it is.
[rockers have left the chat]
(Laughs in smooth jazz)
Any idea of plugs that can be put into the radiator where the oil cooler lines were located? I cant find the thread or size that would be required.
Did you have to do anything to plug where the lines meet the radiator?
The oil cooler is a separate section of the radiator. You can leave them open or plug them to keep the dust/moisture out 🍻
Thanks for getting me out of the heat and yard work! So blue filters are just as bad as orange ones? What about the higher-end blue ones? Lately I’ve only been using Wix but would still like opinions on the blue OEM ones.
Inhave an 08 sierra with the 5.3l... Oreillys says the adapter/delete is compatible but im unsure if the replacement is as straight forward?
Can I get a thumbs up for everyone who said CoverGirl lol
1995 was a weird year for GM trucks. New dashboard and interiors, first year for the 4 door Tahoe. I think GM either ran out of time and/or money on the 1995 redesign, the multiport FI "Vortec" engine wasnt quite ready so they stuck the same 350 TBI engine in there
Have a 95 yukon we just picked up,
Will be doing this!
The second part, lol
Does that truck have the original transmission?
Transmission 4 or 5 right now, I don’t remember 🍻
I was expecting more damage when he first mentioned it from a tornado
I watched a guy mess his up worse running over a 55 gallon drum trash can, bent that same part of the bed all up
Nice a mid day video thanks buddy
This was last night's video that was stuck processing for hours 😢
@@WatchJRGo lol I thought it was a little unusual.. I’m so excited about where this channel is going. Keep up the good work
