Oh ok, this thin metal tube that runs below the oil pressure sending unit...

And, it is still WRONG!

Thus, MY replies...
No. It is not. He stated what he did from his experience and had no issue. There is nothing in his sentence stating the OP should do the same thing.
You are really trying to make something out of something that isnt' there.

Are you really that obtuse?

Of course that is what he "implied' by making the comment in the first place!!!

No-one else here will argue otherwise... And for you to even try to state otherwise is just as bad... Of COURSE he intended to imply that you don't need them, using himself as the prime example...

And it doesn't change the fact... HE, and you if you support it, ARE WRONG!

It is there for a real, valid, engineering priciple and applied reason. Use it. End of subject.

I can assure you that you will NEVER get the last word in when responding to SS RRR. Got a better shot hitting the lottery. I agree with everything you said too.

Whatever you say. You take it one way and assume what you believe were his intentions and make a huge spectacle. I'll go ahead and take the words typed at face value.
