MW turbo oil line?

tomstractorsandtoys · Dec 26, 2013

I just bought a 4020 with a M&W turbo and the oil line on the right side of the engine that comes out of the oil port in the block and goes to the turbo oil filter is leaking.It is a braided metal line and I was wondering where to go buy a replacement? Thanks Tom

I used a 1/4" hydralic hose on my (706)turbo.Been there for 20 years.

Do a search for Red Oak Diesel in Red Oak Iowa. I got an oil line and piping for a 4020 a few years ago from them. chris

Check with your local auto parts store for replacement. Take the old hose along. I would remove the battery ground to make sure no one try's to start it. If there's a place called Colliflower near you they can make you a new hose. I made those hoses at work using reuseable
swivel nuts. These were JIC threads. I also made them for the Super C I had after one of them blew on the last pass across the garden. Hal

Back when I worked at a 'diesel shop',we made lots of turbo oil lines out of that stuff,

I replaced the one on my 4010 with a steel line.

The only reason for the braided line originally is ease of installation. M&W didn't have to provide a specific line for each application if the went with the flexible braided line.
