Oil Waterfall
I am having a serious leak coming from the oil cooler line from the bottom of the oil filter housing. It looks like its rubbing on the gearbox. It seems to leak the most when I get the car good and hot on the interstate; and when it rains it pours.
My question is this. I am planning on replacing both oil cooler lines and just wanted to know if anyone has any experience doing this. The lines look very tricky to get in and out of there.

Many, many write ups in the archives. Have a look. Blow by blow descriptions of changing them out.

Yeah I found some great posts there.
Is there any reason why I can't soak the bolts w/ some PB Blaster?

Answer:
Quote:
* Separating hose connections from (aluminum) oil cooler without wrecking cooler fittings. * Separating hose connections from oil filter housing fittings (require a very thin wrench to hold fitting). If the A/C in not functional (no charge), removing the compressor makes the line change easy.

Inspect the Motor Mounts especially on Oil Cooler side of the Engine. When it/they Collaspe the Power Steering Belt sometimes cuts into one of the Hoses and cuses a leak.
