mass diesel/diesel manor tranny line
mine is leaking at the fitting that came installed in the port. i need to take the whole line off, so i can take off the fitting and re-paste it,etc. does anybody know what size of a plug i would need for the top male and the bottom femalethreads on the tranny-where the line installs?? so, this way i can put dummy plugs in, so i do not lose alot of fluid!

I would have to go look at mine, but I doubt you could plug the lines. I bet they used a ferreled fitting.
Sorry, I just reread your post and you are wanting to remove the whole line. Not sure what size those are. |
i think i may have the old line around somewhere. but if somebody knows- i would appreciate it!
|
Well when mine was installed i don't think a pint of fluid came out if that.
|
that is what i read from other posts before i did the install. but when i did it- i lost close to a quart of fluid!! i was surprised!-after reading several posts of how there is hardly any fluid loss! not in my case!

Just did mine last weekend. I had the truck tipped to the passenger side some and only lost a few ounces. Did not leave it open long though. The fittings are hydraulic type and both are different sizes. My old piece is two hours away so I can not give you the sizes right now. Your best bet if you need to leave it off for a period of time is to put the original back in. Good luck. David |

bought some plugs today at home depot. i was able to find the old line. good trick-i'll slightly jack the truck-so i can slow down the fluid loss.

The more I think about it mine was sitting for probably 2 hours at least had to go to Home Depot the get an adapter to put the sensor in.

i remember when i first put th line on- the majority of my fluid loss came within the first couple of minutes-then it just became a dribble. total fluid loss when done-was 3/4 of a quart.
