Oil delete block plug

[jaybrown]

I know this has been beat to death but can some post a pic of where they have put a block off on the side of the block where the air nipple is for the oil pump to work? I have the oil delete kit so I put the long shaft in where the oil pump was but how do I block off where the air is used to make the external tank work?

Take out the hose barb and replace with a plug.

What size thread is it? And who would sell the plug?

[rock]

I think it is as 1/4" pipe plug available in brass or iron at any hardware store. Remove barb and take it with you.

Ok thanks now I see what you mean how do I get old barbed out? Will it pinch if I try and unscrew it with vide grips?

[Aaronhl]

Use a deep well socket or open end wrench.

9/16 deep well socket takes it out . If your motor is an efi I can give you the merc part number to block off where the oil line enters the vst tank .
