Tapping oil from filter housing

[Scientist]

Anyone has any diagrams on where to tap it on the watercooled filter housing?

you want the oil from the angled plug on the front edge of the housing. I want to say it's the bottom one but I can't remember and I didn't take pictures. There are two of the plugs though, one is like | and the other is like \ so it's pretty easy to see.

You'll need a propane torch to heat the thing up though, you'll never break that plug free otherwise. In a vise you'll wreck the housing, and on the car, good luck! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/uhh.gif

Bottom one - top one would work but is end of oil cycle, bottom is just post-filter.

+1 clean it up real good :nofire: and torch it. it won't take much heat but it will take some.

I've got a set of 2 stock washers (with rubber in the middle) used to seal the lines that go to the OEM 1990 external cooler. PM me if you want them for shipping charges only.
