    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.

    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.

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.

    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.

    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?

  • @CR7659
    @CR7659 3 роки тому

    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.

    Ha dorman oil cooler lines..you'll be replacing those again soon. Lucky if they even fit in the first place.

    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.

    Can you run a wix 57099 filter on a 4x4

  • @TheBibliofilus
    @TheBibliofilus 3 роки тому

    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.

    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.

    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

      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.

      @@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.

      @D4x4Bronc 3 роки тому

      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
