    Very happy the oil lines are installed. Those push to connect fittings are neat but are a royal pain when your only tools are a couple of oven mitts, a few drops of soap, and a pan of boiling water. The job looks neat when completed and the flame shield certainly has a clean fit.

    I was careful to use a second wrench when tightening the fittings on the oil cooler and got them fairly snug. Even when tight, those two fittings can be wobbled a bit. Is this normal? Possible oil leak?

    On mine there was some movement. When under pressure they seal.
