What It Helps Address

• Heat-related deterioration of the original oil line
• Fitment issues caused by incorrect fitting style or length
• Service replacement needs on Ford turbocharger oil line applications

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the inlet and outlet fitting types before installation: flange at the inlet and flat face at the outlet. Confirm the 21-inch centerline length and compare the routing path to the original line before tightening connections. Clean mating surfaces thoroughly so the turbocharger oil feed line seals correctly and routes without stress or twist.

For Ford medium-duty diesel service, match the original line layout and inspect surrounding turbocharger components for heat damage or contamination before completing the repair. The TL137 part number should be checked against the removed line and vehicle service information to confirm application details.
