FYI oil fitting thread sizes etc
« on: July 12, 2008, 10:32:41 pm »
If any one looking to fab up an fittings for the turbos etc.. I thought I had psoted them before but couldn't find them on a search so I'm posting it  again in case I need them in the future, or any one else does too......heres the sizes...

the tdi block drain fitting is 18mm 1.5 pitch,
the kkk 24 turbo feed is 12mm 1.5 pitch,
the oil filter housing and the side of the cyl head are 10mm 1.0 pitch

       I'm going with 10 an drain and 4 an feed.
The kkk k24 drain is bolted on so I am cutting the drain tube and welding a steel 10 an male fitting on to the bolt on tube...worked last time and easy to do...

Thanks,
Deo

Nice work.
I suggest you post good info like this right into a new post on the FAQ section as well.  Perhaps others can add info they have as well.

def....this should go to the FAQ...it has been "questioned" so many times before.

Maybe I'll try to pull the ETKA 7 bolt dimensions, etc. for each as well. In the future...when i have time....if that exists....lol

but thanks! Def. good to have in the FAQ
