    Subject: Oil Lines and Aluminum AN Fittings
    Anybody using aluminum AN fittings on their oil lines on a 912? With an oil cooler? For approximately how many hours? I've been told I must convert to steel for all the oil line end fittings. Tough to do with AN fittings and decent routing. Next: Anybody using AN non-banjo fittings to attach fuel lines to the carbs? I found an 8mm male to -3 AN male steel adapter, but have 1/4" fuel lines so need to convert to -4. I can only find -3 AN to -4 AN converters in aluminum.

    Hi Guy, I have alum AN fittings on my LO cooler and have had them for 1000 hrs...no issues. I just have the barbed fittings and fuel hose with clamps to the carbs.
