Hello,

I finished this job yesterday... It is defently a pain in the A$$... I ended up breaking my oil trap open to see if anything was built up and didnt really find anything.. The hoses however had a lot of buildup in them.. If those plug up you will have problems..

$144 in parts from dealer (including 3 orings for oil cooler)

I didnt put clamps on the small 1" hose from block to oil trap.. I really didnt see a way you could tighten both clamps. One yes, but not the second.. I thought the steel ring could distort from a clamp and make the other side leak.. So I didnt bother putting either one on.. The steel ring is what compresses the rubber enough against the plug... Should be good!!!
