The engine oil cooler lines should be cleaned using an appropriate solvent until all components are completely dry by blowing through them with compressed air. Check all connector fittings and connectors and engine oil cooler lines for any sign of damage or distortion. Before you install new engine oil cooler lines make sure you inspect them for any plastic caps that are damaged or missing because you need to replace them if they are missing.
