Subject: [FlyRotary] oil return banjo
fitting?
Greetings,
While I'm replumbing
everything, I'd like to so something about the oil return to the rear
housing. I'm using a modified metric to AN-10 90 degree fitting, but
it's a little dicey fitting around the engine mount. I'd like to go back
to the stock banjo type fitting if possible. Ideally, I'd like to have a
banjo, to AN adapter, but I haven't found one nearly the size I need.
Since the oil cooler has AN-12 fittings, banjo to AN-12 would be ideal.
I could also deal with Banjo to AN-10, or a banjo fitting that's made to
install on a braided hose. The banjo in question is
18mmX1.5.
Can anyone point me to
something that will work? Hey Paul, didn't you end up using a banjo
fitting for your oil return?
Thanks,
Rusty
Hi, Rusty....I
originally used a banjo fitting, but later on when I moved my oil
cooler, I went to the local Parker/Gates hydraulic hose shop and
purchased a metric to male AN fitting that screwed right in there, and I
attached a female AN swivel fitting to that. I will take a picture of it for
you. Paul Conner
