NCred02 Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 The direct replacement is not that direct. My issue is the coolant intake on the original is bigger than the opening for the new one. So I need to go from a hardline ,5/16, to the braided threads , 9/16- 18. Any ideas? Cant find anything Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/483044-turbo-fitting-help/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurboTapin Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 I would redo the entire line instead of having a union in-between two different lines. You can purchase this online or any hydraulic supplier. If you prefer to keep your lines, purchase a 5/16 tube to 9/16-18 male compression fitting.

dyl33 Posted November 28, 2021 Share Posted November 28, 2021 You can just use some coolant hose from the hardline to the barb fitting. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/483044-turbo-fitting-help/#findComment-7958167 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to replace every inch of line I can as 30 years takes it toll. But I can't get behind the block, between the firewall and the engine to disconnect them.
