I was wanting to perhaps use the Chinese hose with the Chinese Metric Fittings at one end but cut the hose and put an AN fitting on the other end. I believe I can also use Aeroquip 303 hose with the AN 491 fitting, throw away the B AN nut and use a Chinese Millimeter B nut in it's place. This is for the Big 12D oil lines. I'm replacing all my oil lines in the system and adding an Oil Filter in the line from the engine to the cooler so there is a combination of Metric vs AN. Here is another question. I have been told that the Chinese use American Pipe Thread going into the bottom of the Oil Tank. If that is true then I can get a couple of those nipples from Doug Sapp and screw those into the oil filter housing and just use all New Chinese hoses. PS I have already purchased the entire Oil Line Hose set from Doug and just trying to add the American Oil Filter into the system. I'm sure there are a lot of ways to go about this. Just looking at all possible solutions without reinventing the system. Thanks y'all ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 01:55:27 PM PST US From: "Bitterlich, Mark G CIV NAVAIR, WD" Subject: Yak-List: Oil Line Hoses and Fittings There is an alternative solution available should your solution not work out. Check out Kimball's set of M-14 adapters, which are designed to adapt all M-14 engine fittings over to AN type. These are of course for the Russian engines. I have no experience with the Housai, but possibly someone else can tell you whether they are the same or not. I am guessing they might be. But? http://www.jimkimballenterprises.com/m14p.php Mark -----Original Message----- From: owner-yak-list-server@matronics.com [mailto:owner-yak-list-server@matronics.com] On Behalf Of Greg Wrobel Sent: Wednesday, August 30, 2017 4:28 PM Subject: [Non-DoD Source] Yak-List: Oil Line Hoses and Fittings Has anyone ever used the Chinese Oil Line hoses with any type of the AN fittings such as the Aeroquip AN 491 Series or perhaps another MFG of AN hose fittings?
