as i was taking off my downpipe i guess it hit something then there was sparks and a flame put it out but also my grounding wire on my battery was messed up also.ya i was stupid and didnt disconnect the batter. The thing I got my downpipe to was some sort of pipe. Heres a pic.....





can anyone help me???

thanks

 

Oil feed line (to the turbo)get it fixed before driving or starting it. Also check the oil and replace it before you drive/start it.

You probably hit the starter with the wrench ...

 

this answer is dead on

get a new oil feed line and gaskets (if necessary)

 

hahaah exact thing happened to me....exact

 

yup forgot the gaskets, change your oil, I would..and check it after idle for any leaks.

 

how much do you think it would cost for that part???

is it easy to replace also?

 

oil line, lancer, feed 03-05 $23.37 $23.37
add some for new gaskets. So around 26.00

not to hard just take your time.

good luck!

 

thank you all. hope we can get the part tomorrow and get this thing back on the road.

 

bummer man. good luck fixing

 

oil RETURN line..u bashed it pretty good. New one n gaskets..GTG!

 

Wow how hard did you hit it?

 

I have 2 laying around and i think you might have hit the starter didnt you lol

you banged that stuff up pretty bad man, look at your oil pan/block lol

 

Isnt that the oil return line? and NOT the oil feed line?

 

ya hit the starter, sparks went every and there was a flame thats what probably messed up the pipe.

Do you think the starter might be messed up?

i wouldnt think because it has a heat shield around it but you never know.

 

but ya i ordered a new oil return line....but not going to get it until Tuesday hopefully

kaonashi your not that far from me, Im in Austin, Tx. But dont know if I would drive all that way to Orange, Texas to get that.
