Allis CA Oil Lines to Gov/Dist

I'm rebuilding a CA. The oil lines to the governor and distributor are destroyed/missing. Just fittings on the tees/connectors, looks like they were snipped off.

I have the manuals and see where they go.

Just copper compression line? Any tips? Sizes?

Thanks,
 
You can find the size of the line by measuring the hole in the fittings, seems as though they have a barrel shaped ferral on the end.
 

I'm still learning with a lot of this stuff.

The copper line seems reasonable, can I reuse the fittings? They are costly little doo-dads.
 
Yes, fittings are reusable. You will need new ferrules of course. Copper line or steel brake line works great.

Doesn't much matter. NAPA would have the steel brake line. Both would have the compression fittings and ferrules.

I have a coil of 1/8" copper that I used for those oil lines in the past. They are not pressurized so the 1/8" plastic would work if desired. Our local NAPA told me that they sell the plastic for oil pressure gauges and didn't have the 1/8" steel in stock when I ask a few years back.
 
I would tell them what to do with that plastic line. You guessed it its in the category of "wouldn't throw it a stone if it was drowning."
 

Thanks all, no plastic. Copper seems the best for the use. My line snips have the ferrules as brazed ridges. I'll find a place that will replace the ferrules and line, but reuse my fittings.

Thanks,
 
Hardware store would have the ferrules. If you cut the copper smooth and don't crush it, they will slide right on.
