I have a leak on my oil cooler on the passenger side hose.

how do I fix this? The search feature isn’t being helpful right now.

 

Need a bit more history? How long have you had it? When did it start leaking? Recent repairs? Where is it leaking exactly? There is an o-ring seal where it snaps in to the radiator.

 

-I had it for 4 years.
-Just put a new 4.6 engine in it.
-It’s leaking from the fitting from the oil cooler to the hose.

I’m 95% certain the o-ring from the hose to the cooler has given out.

So where do I get this o-ring.
And how do I get the hose off to change it?

 

You have to push forward on the hose while pulling rearward on the plastic quick disconnect release, then pull the hose off. Did you disconnect it during the new engine install? If so, it might not be seated completely which is common. Pull hard on it rearward to make sure it is seated fully and if it comes off that was the issue. Push it back on and the repeat the pull hard test.

 

Any idea where to find the oil o-ring?
