Review on πŸ”§ Dorman OE Solutions 917-412 Engine Oil Filler Tube: Ensuring Optimal Filling Efficiency and Engine Performance by Mandela Buycks

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Serves its purpose but fits strangely

Everything ok but a strange fit problem. The oil cap had to be pushed in. I bought a new lid and it was a little tighter too! I had to push hard. So I sanded down the surface around the cap to make it narrower and finally I was able to attach it without actually fusing it to the tube; If I didn't, he would quickly stop removing the lid. But. Surprise surprise! The hose dangles a little in the valve cover. So he wants to get out of the motor easily (although he won't fall out easily), but the cap is very tight, even with a lot of grinding. I suspect it was a designer's problem converting imperial to metric units or the part sagged a bit after molding.

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Long delivery time
