M Oil Port on Back of Head

ccfoshee · Jul 21, 2011

On my M, the previous owner had removed the air cleaner assembly and the line that runs from the back of the head to the cleaner.

Anybody know what size the threads are on the port in the head?

I've gotten an air cleaner and the line that runs to the head, but it didn't include the threaded female adapter that runs into the head.

Tired of giving the back side of my engine an oil bath...

Thanks.

NOT sure of the size, 1/4 or 3/8 pipe, but you can still get the fitting at your FIAT dealer for about $10, #222-407.

Without checking, pretty sure threads in the head for fitting are 1/4 pipe thread.
If very much oil is comming out, may want to check that other fittings and line is in place under valve cover.

I agree with Slater, if you're getting an oil bath on the back of the engine, then the pipe that runs from the front to the back of the head under the valve cover is broken or missing. I don't have the pipe installed you are speaking of and mine never loses oil out the back, even though it is a puller and does many wheel stands.
