Anybody using aluminum AN fittings on their oil lines on a 912? With an
oil cooler? For approximately how many hours? I've been told I must
convert to steel for all the oil line end fittings. Tough to do with AN
fittings and decent routing.

Next: Anybody using AN non-banjo fittings to attach fuel lines to the
carbs? I found an 8mm male to -3 AN male steel adapter, but have 1/4"
fuel lines so need to convert to -4. I can only find -3 AN to -4 AN
converters in aluminum.

Hi Guy,
I have alum AN fittings on my LO cooler and have had them for 1000 hrs...no
issues.
I just have the barbed fittings and fuel hose with clamps to the carbs.
Take care,
Mark Donahue
