Oil cooler pipe union?
Turbo Mini Forums

Hi

Can anybody tell me what oil pipe union I need to connect the pipe in the picture to the union in the oil filter housing. I have tried connecting the pipe directly to the oil filter housing but the thread is not quite right and I have forced this previously and busted the housing. The oil pipe is quite old but as far as I can remember it is for a mini. So before I go and buy a new set of pipes I thought I'd just ask on here to see if anyone can help. I'm sorry I can't even tell you what the thread is on the end of the pipe, I'm crap with things like that, all I know is that it almost fits but not quite. So I'm after some sort of female-female pipe union that joins the male end of the pipe to the original union currently in the housing.




Cheers

You usually remove the original union in the housing and replace with one in the pipe kit.
Its nigh on impossible for us to tell you what you need without any sizes, as we don't know what size your pipe is.
I'd suggest going down to your local hydraulics place with both parts and see if they can sort you out, I know the one I use here certainly would be able to.

Tommy where you go? Where you gooo Tommy!

There are two sizes for these. I was supplied with the wrong ones from Minispares (No fault of theirs). So I ordered the correct ones from Avonbar and they arrived next day.

They are really cheap. I would just order both sizes if you don't know what you have at the moment.

In the 13's at last!.. Just

Cheers for the replies guys but i took Tom's advice and the local hydraulics shop came up with the goods.
