Hello everybody!
My S2a with IO360 had no oil drain tubes when I bought her. Engine was not complete:(. I ordered a new set from Loma-air in Belgium. They fit more or less okay, but not the one for cylinder #2.
I hope you can see it on the photos: it hits the oilcooler in the front but is still too long to fit in the hose ... about 15mm.
Sadly I haven't found any photo how the original drain tube looks like. Do I have the wrong part-nr.?
Or is it common to bend the tube?
Thank you very much in advance for any advice!
Blue skies,
Jochen
