Default STS braided turbo oil line

I was installing my GT67 replacement yesterday. Swapping out the ole T60-1. Got it all buttoned back up and started to hook up the braided oil line. The line's brass screw cap/compression fitting end that screws over the compressor fitting just came apart on me. Broke in two. Didn't separate where it's pressed on to the line, the fitting just plain broke. Maybe it takes on some heat and wears out the material.

Just be careful when playing with that end of the line once you get some use on that thing.

It's all put back together. Waiting on the freaking oil line now. srt10kllr has shipped me one from a kit of his and I'll have STS send him a new one. It was overnighted to me yesterday and I see it left the PO in CA.....but it wasn't delivered today.

You will! There are a ton of bashers, but the system works.
