ok i just replaced my old line with a new one, but my buddy here doesn't have the $$$$ for a OEM replacement. and he asked me if he HAD to have the stock line,and i am clueless. or if he could just make a short new one that wraps around the back of the block instead of down and around., he is having the4 same problem i did, the line is blocked

 

what is a turbo line?

 

the oil feed line. the line is F&%#ED on his too. i take it that it is a common problem. his is a bit newer though his is a 1999.5. but other then the year it's all the same as mine.

 

it doesnt have to be specificly OEM i guess but it does have to be the same size with the same connectors. btw theres an oil supply line and an oil return line. im assuming you mean the supply one.

 

yes, the supply line, and yeah, if he used the same sized line and everything just took it a diffrent rout.
