Turbo oil feed - from block

[Anonymous]

Posted on behalf of Memski,

Any of you guys know the size of the banjo bolt for the turbo oil feed, and the thread pitch. Ideally does anyone know what size helicoil will be needed?

cheers
Hetz

Off the top of my head it's M14x1.25, but I'll check later.
I don't think you'll get a helicoil that size.

I've been to the garage and had a check, it's M14x1.5mm.
You can't get a helicoil that size, don't know what you'd do.

Geetee: I probably cross threaded the banjo when tightening it back up

Thanks again guys and Hetz :twisted: :lol:

memski do you require a new banjo bolt mate got sh1t loads at work

 

[memski]

Hi Mike, yeah that would be great, will get one off you when I see you next. Can't do tonight now

 

[paulrandy]

if anyone wants an easier solution ive got banjo's that are 6mm longer so they can screw into previously unused threads.

Are they the standard banjo bolt :?: as it has the oil restrictor built into it

You know, that would really help. I need my car running this weekend and if my helicoil kit doesn't arrive in time I may have to do this....
