<< I can't believe this is the right stud. It looks like a normal 5/16 th
stud with fine thread on one end and course on the other. I threaded it
into the block. How is the pressure of engine oil supposed to slip out
to the ring on the oil feed hose? Osmosis? Telepathy? This stud is
way too short anyway. By the time all the hardware is assembled, there
is nothing left for the acorn to grab onto. >>
It's a normal 5/16 stud. The oil goes between it and the oil filter mount and
into the pressure line. Try backing the stud out a turn or two and then
assemble, in order, brass washer, oil line, brass washer, nut. If it works and
doesn't leak, move on.
