oil and coolant turbo lines
 

ok so i need to get my motor in today and the only part left is my turbo lines

now i know that the biggest opening is the oil drain line which goes into the oil pan. but where do i get the feed line from? and both the feed and return coolant lines? and where can i get the lines from? if someone has pictures that would be great

Thanks

I bought a kit for the turbo feed line, and it came with a nice drain line also. The coolant lines were easier to find, I just used some standard coolant hose from the local parts store, and some barb fittings from the hardware store.

For sizes and locations, do a search. There are tons of threads on this.

Depending on what year car you have (which should be in your sig) you can get oil from different places.

Coolant comes from the front by the thermostat usually.

Your questions show that you haven't put any time into searching. So I suggest you start now.

Coolant is easy, oil is not as easy. We don't know what year his car is. If it's a 1.6 or early 1.8 he can get it real handy like under the turbo, but if it's newer than he'll have to get it from the other side.

Fixed. How many threads do we need about the same shit?

If you searched you would've found those pics. Tyson didn't just make them for you.

You obviously didn't read the https://www.miataturbo.net/forum/t4288/ thread.

but there wasnt a pic of the oil feed line:fawk: lol

anyone know if like autozone or somewhere would carry the lines needed?

No, places *like Vatozone don't have them.


In an effort to actually be helpful:

The coolant feed and return are standard and can be found at local auto stores.

You can also find your return line at local stores, as well as the fitting that goes into the oil pan at your local Home Depot.

I recommend having a stainless feed line made at the least, since it goes near the downpipe, and hold higher pressures. The fittings for the motor end of that line might also be found at HD/Lowe's with some luck, but I forget the size. The oil in/out fittings will be specific to your turbo and require:

SEARCHING

thanks. i alread ymade a couple calls and found a place about 25mins from my house that carrys a huge arrangement of lines and im on my way to get them.

hopefully if i can get my motor out of the basement when i get back then i just need to put the clutch/flywheel and trans on and put it in!

The links on the FAQ don't all work.
