Trish,
Change both of these 'oil cooler lines' at the same time if possible, as
they're kinda a pain to install, and most likely both need replacing. If
I remember correctly, you'll (or Kevin) need to wiggle them, while
unattached on the ends, to get them to line up correctly, along with
removing the motor mounts and raising the engine slightly. Also, make
sure you have the right size wrenches before getting started.
