Replacement
Oil Transfer Pipe
This hose assembly
was primarily designed to replace the inadequate factory pipe that fits
between the block and the oil filter housing on single point injection
Mini Coopers. Sept.1992 to Oct.1996
However with different
adapters it will fit all A Series engines and can be modified to suit
custom applications.
History
When the new Injection Cooper was launched a series of important changes
were made to improve the engine and the car in general. A number of
items were obviously targeted as a cost saving exercise. Unfortunately
the oil transfer pipe, which carries oil from the block down to the
oil filter housing fell into this category.
The quite substantial, original banjo and bolt fixing were dispensed
with for a rather more fragile fitting. This has achieved quite a reputation
for at best regularly leaking and at the worst blowing out the block
altogether.
New
improved adapter design for 2003!
Custom made adapters are supplied to suit the injection cars unusual
thread size which Rover chose to use and these are fitted with genuine
"Dowty" seals to ensure an oil tight fit.
