Author Message   Edmbueller Posted on Tuesday, September 08, 2009 - 03:00 pm:        Tipped the bike over, bent the oil cooler line and now the fitting is seeping/leaking. the line too a bit of a hit when the bike went over and I think it torqued the fitting. Anyone know if I pull the line and bend it back to original shape think the fitting would re-seal?   Zac4mac Posted on Tuesday, September 08, 2009 - 10:15 pm:        They are some kind of quick connect fitting. Have not pulled one but it looks like it's locked with the little wire clip. Experimenting may cost you a quart of oil... And some mess.
