What size are those nuts? What is the procedure to tighten them, two nuts and the tube? Any help much appreciated. Looks like I get a new tool again..... Thanks for any help. Ride safe, and keep the oil in the bike, bad flash back to HD...

This is where the oil tube enters the engine on the bottom. The oil cooler return pipe connection. Any idea what size open end wrenches are required? Thanks for any help.

I got the above info from the tech vault... (The Vault > Tech Basics > Tourqe Specs) or CLICK HERE!


BTW... I keep a copy printed out and in my Hanes manual. Its usually easier to find specs on the printout vs the book.

That would be 24 mm wrench for the fittings
