Oil cooler lines
I purchased a set of the oil cooler lines put together by Jeffvette. See post http://www.zr1.net/forum/showthread....t=cooler+lines
Here is the question for those of you who have already installed them. Did you use any high temperature sealant on the threads? These look like they are like a compression fitting so I am wondering if sealant is really needed. Thanks for the advice! |
