    Where can i pick up a oil return tube local. Kind of in a jam. Advance auto parts doesn't seem to sell it. My last choice is Pelican parts which i wanted to avoid since i wanted to do a same day fix. West Palm Beach FL 33414 :sad:

                        HAHA..that is true. From now on I'll contact the Guru, and quit being hard headed. :)

                              I bought the car as is from the PO. Had a slight hesitation which turns out it was the head gasket. It ended up blowing on me. I did a whole rebuild. and changed out basically everything besides the starter and the alternator. Then when I got to that tube it was bent and rusted inside the block like the PO just said forget it, and shoved it in. :blowup:
