My oil cooler lines are leaking pretty badly and I'm going to replace them when I do my oil change. Rockauto.com lists 2 different ones, does anyone know which part number is the one I need? Also this will be my first oil change on this truck what type of oil should I be using and what is the capacity?

Re: Oil Cooler Lines
Oil cooler lines. You you refering to the lines that go from the filter to the radiator which are the cooler lines. Or are you thinking of the lines that go between the block and the filter which are the ones that seem to start leaking when these trucks get older?

Re: Oil Cooler Lines
De-grease everything and verify where the leak is coming from. On mine, it was the $6 gasket between the lines and the block that began to leak, and almost killed my engine. Its a little louder now, but still running. From what I've seen, that's the leak point. Those lines aren't fun to replace, so verify the leak first.
Normal oil capacity with filter change is ~4.5 qts of full synthetic only!

Re: Oil Cooler Lines
I really appreciated your post. I actually printed it out so I can go over everything step by step. I just haven't responded as I had no new info to report. Ive been in pain from a kidney stone for the last 2 days and have taken a bunch of pain meds so my head isn't really straight to be working on troubleshooting. I'm just trying to forward my truck repairs best I can by ordering parts while I'm down.
I need the ones that go from the filter down to the block.

Re: Oil Cooler Lines
Those are not the cooler lines. Those are the oil lines that go to the remote located oil filter. I may have a low milage set. I will check tomorrow.

Re: Oil Cooler Lines
Ok I give. Whats the trick to getting the filter to block lines changed? Ive unbolted the sandwich adapter and dropped the front diff enough to move it toward the drivers frame rail. I thought i could sneak it out one way or the other but cant get it to go anywhere from there. Looks like the diff has to drop down further but I cant seem to get at the nut that resides in the drivers frame rail. Any help?

Re: Oil Cooler Lines
Depends. If it's o-ring style most parts stores will have them as a kit which covers the the line (block to filter) and adapter to block. Sorry don't have that number. The number I DO have is the kit for the non o-ring style seals.
EDIT o-ring kit should be GM # 15564870

Dorman Part No. 66201

BTW If you take out the wheel well, taking out the pair of lines block-to-filter is a semi piece of cake. Worth the time in my book. They need to twist down to come out and the wheel well is in the way.

Re: Oil Cooler Lines
Myself inlcuded.
I use a filter for a 2.2 4 banger S10. You kida have to get it in from the side above the front prop shaft, but it fits without hitting anything.
Same diameter as the 4.3 filter, but shorter.

Re: Oil Cooler Lines
Are you sure about Dorman not making a hose set for the Sy? I believe the 625-102 is correct and will fit, I've used it. Or did I misunderstand?
See my thread for some pics:

Re: Oil Cooler Lines
Why not try the local dealership? It should be under $5
They have it at Summit.
http://www.summitracing.com/parts.aspx?sku=NAL-88893989
Have you tried contacting Mike Hood? He may have them/be able to get them for you, also.
Rockauto shows Dorman PN 82560. Not sure if this will work, though.

on another note does this stuff go bad and start leaking that often? my truck is still apart right now and it's all accessible (more than when it is complete) but i'm not sure it's worth replacing since it all looks to be in decent shape?
