I busted a oil hose off that goes from my mech oil metering pump. The hose is busted off on top of my block, the uppermost one. I can't get that DAMN :madgo: banjo,butterfly, whatever the **** its called, bolt off!!! how does the damn thing work??? I need to get the clamp/bolt off to put the hose back on the nozzle. I didn't want to break anything else so this is why i posted.

That banjo thingy still won't come off. And the 11mm fits on it. It just spins around like a washer. It doens't look like a bolt either, it looks like a clamp. I mean how can the hose go over the metal nozzle, then the Banjo go over the hose, if its a nut? I can't just pull it off either, it won't come, and iv'e sprayed the bitch w/ lubrication. :dontgetit:

U know those four rubber hoses that carry oil to the engine. They are pumped by a mechancial oil metering pump, the rod from the throttle body connnects to it. Its right next to the main pulley. Under the Upper Intake the four hoses connect to 4 nozzles, where the oil is injected into the engine parts. They are connectde by a banjo type clamp/ butterfly clamp.
