Hello, I understand that these oil lube lines should be changed periodically, I do all my own oil changes and figure I could do this myself too, or is this not advised? I have worked on all my vehicles (up to a certain point, ) but this will be a new experience for me.

Hi,

As far as replacement, I've attached the directions specific to the feed line and return line below. I would inspect the ones presently on it for any evidence of wear or if there is a leak where they are bolted to the components.

Let me know if this helps. Also, let me know if you have questions.

Take care,

Joe
