Ford Falcon Turbo Oil Feed Line Install

[@dionbuttle9810]

I know its a bit later now, but if ever in the future you remove or replace that oil feed line, disable starting on the car and crank it with the last fitting disconnected from the turbo, then once oil purges through the line, fit it to the turbo. Starting and running the car without lubricant to the turbo can shave life off of it, im sure its fine, but just a heads up🤙

[@ZacBaldy]

Dion Buttle ahhh yes very good point! I’m sure it wouldn’t have done much, even cranking it would spoil itbup even a little bit but with turbos that are more expensive than mine it’s probably a good idea ✌️ cheers Dion!

[@dionbuttle9810]

@@ZacBaldy just gotta do it for when you get a 3582 to blow up that gearbox😉

[@AusJase]

Another should do, once connected remove oil drain from the block, place a tray under it, and crank the engine to confirm oil is running through the turbo.....

[@barraturbolife]

Good video, awesome that you did it yourself. One tip that will help you in future is to use opposing spanner when tightening flare nuts. One to tighten and another on the filter going opposite direction

[@stephengaraway3243]

Are you going to put a external trans cooler on at some point?

[@ZacBaldy]

I have one already :D

[@stephengaraway3243]

ZacBaldy just wondered where it’s positioned on your car I’m unsure we’re and what size I should use on my xr50t

[@lachlanbarton6418]

Any reason you don't run a coil cover? love the videos man!

Hey Zac how much litres can your car hold of petrol and how much money for a full tank ?

[@mickybtegz7061]

4 litres bro and 25 bucks hope that helps!

I found it way easier when replacing the oil pressure or temp sensor to come from underneath and remove the oil filter. Made it way easier I’m sure if it would’ve helped you in that situation.

[@waynegoss2414]

Good on you mate, searched every where to find a vid when i did mine and there were none ,not even from some high end retailers and tuners, again all power to you.

[@AdelGTSX]

One thing to watch out for, make sure the new line can't touch that piece of rubber hose on the intake side as it looks quite close. The external braid is highly abraisive and can rub through with vibrations.

[@MV60]

Should ideally clean the threads in the hole where you took that filter off too. Supercheap sell a small pick set that is perfect for doing that. No it's not better to be safe than sorry for that paste application unless you want that new filter to be full. It's safe to do it right and let the sealant cure before starting the car. Should be ok though, it's a fast cure. Oh and put the sealant on all the threaded connections. :p

[@brokenlegz]

Is it like a metal filter inside? The ants one isn’t and it looks like it’s from an aquarium! It’s also bent and they won’t send me a new one.

U didn't remove the micro filter before put the new turbo line on

[@GENE_THE_NEMES1S]

I should of given you 2 shifters, you really need to check all those fittings if you only nipped them up with one shifter or spanner

[@harrymatthews8000]

Shoulda given him spanners instead of a shifter

[@GENE_THE_NEMES1S]

@@harrymatthews8000 I gave him a shifter to do hold the fitting in the block while undoing the oil pressure switch and banjo nut as spanners are too long to fit down there

The 2010 FG filters are 30mm long. . . not sure if you did the right thing by tearing some mesh out through the oil gallery. . 🤔

[@chrisrolfe6917]

I always thought the FGs had longer filters too. I'll be doing mine tomorrow so I guess I'll find out.

[@TheBruster123]

Love your work man! Turbo feed line isn't a "big job" by any means though... I was never reallly a car guy - only got into them a few years ago, then bought an fg xr50th turbo. First thing I did was oil feed and it took me about an hour. Take your time and follow the directions and you'll be sweet 😊🤙

[@ZacBaldy]

Yeah I realised very quickly how small it was... :P I was way to over prepared, but I smashed it out in about 1 hour which I was happy about. :D

[@TheBruster123]

You did well! Apart from the oil pissing out of the filter 😉😂 For me, the hardest part was getting that fkn C clip out to remove the filter. What a dumb ass design

Zacster I didn’t notice any extractors on your car when you took the heat shield off , do you have exctractors ? If not why not ? Cheers 🍻

🤣 yeah ZAC where are your EXTRACTORS

[@conservativesniperhunter7439]

Mr. Broccoli Gaming I see , interesting.

[@jspilly82]

man i was cringing watching you tighten that feed line to the filter with only one shifter. your lucky you didnt kink or damage that braided line. use the correct size tools and hold both sides of anything like that. flared fittings need to be tight or they will work loose with temp change and vibration. and please if you must use cable ties put enough on that it can move around and so that its neat and tidy. good on ya for having a go and getting it done. im going to try my hand at the youtube thing when I start my fg barra turbo swap into my jaguar xj6 real soon. im trying to pick up as much info as i can about the barra turbo life its like a new language to me coz ivw always been a holden guy ans it was always gonna be an ls swap until benny and the skid factory boys did drag week again this year. (look out for project catfish if your keen on my build)
