Oil rerturn fitting BROKE, ran motor out of oil
Sunday, January 21, 2007 10:24 AM
I was coming down the highway when all the sudden my oil gauge reads 0. My 90' fitting going into my pan broke right in half. It is a earls fuel line 90. I used it to clear the lip on the pan, and it has a nice radius for the oil to flow. Has anyone else experiences this? It was about 5/8'' away from my axle. Do you think my axle could have possibly hit it?

The actual fitting itself broke in half or it broke out of the pan?

I have a long 90 degree fitting coming out of my pan also but it's not under any stress at all....

The actual fitting broke. Mine wasn't under any stress either. The fitting lined right back up after it broke. Think the axle could have hit it.
