whats the easiest way to remove the oil cooler line on a 92 s-10 blazer..........thanks

 

well if its the one that goes from the oil filter to the eng then u will need a very long 2 ft extension and a floor jack and a piece of wood. the bolt heads i believe are 9/16, along with a 1/2 ratchet you will need to feed the socket and extension through the steering linkage area towards the bolt. oh but before that u might need to jack up the eng slightly to get past the motor mount. so put the wood under the oil pan and lift it with the jack.so after u feed the extension through then carefully remove the old lines, and install is the reverse of removal except be very carefull when feeding and turning the new lines into position. u dont want to crimp or disturb the fittings on the lines. otherwise the cooler line is pretty straight foward, two bolts off two bolts on.

 

thanks for your help.should i drain the oil first

 

no thank u, but yes drain the oil and do a complete change with filter. its cheap enough
