Oil leak investigation

[Voyager]

Believe I have fixed the oil pressure gauge line oil leak.

See photo. Your terminology my differ.

Item “A” is pressure fitting bought from Ace Hardware. It consists of 3 separate pieces; a compression seat, a compression nut and a compression ring. The compression seat screws into the block, the compression nut screws onto the compression seat, and captures the compression ring in between.

Item “B” is original compression nut.

Item “C” is original compression ring . Notice the compression ring is rotated, pinching the hose and causing my oil leak.

Item “D” is Ace compression seat.

I cut the end of the hose off, slipped the Ace Hardware compression seat over the oil line, followed by the Ace compression ring, and tightened everything up. Torqued to “medium snug”

I did not use the Ace compression seat because it was a different size than the one in my block (thankfully it was not the source of the leak).

Puttered down the road and back. No leak. If it starts again, I’ll go the braided line route.

Now to fix the clutch slave, redo my coolant bypass and install my shoulder harness.
