Angry Remote Oil Line Leak

Anyone having problems with the OEM remote oil setup?

Replaced mine 2 years ago and the freaking thing is leaking again !!!

Sure wished I'd read a little more in the forums ... would have opted for Permacool aftermarket.

Looks like I'll be stripping it off for the 2nd time and either trying to have it refit (with non-crimp fittings) or tossing it and going Permacool.

97 F150 4x4 Supercab 4.6L

Just swap over to a non-clamp/crimp system. Hard to get a leak out of properly installed AN fittings. Admittedly they're pricey, but IMO well worth the peace of mind.
