    M1008 / M1009 CUCV Oil Cooler Line Failure

    I pulled that recall info off of Alldata. It is a copy of the GM recall sent out back in the day. I believe it covers all 6.2 J-codes. Let me know if GM takes care of it for you. Would be good for everyone who has this issue to know.

    M1008 / M1009 CUCV Oil Cooler Line Failure

    Sounds like that's what they mean. If they are OEM lines, they should replace them free of charge.

    M1008 / M1009 CUCV Oil Cooler Line Failure

    Yeah. They definitely are a pain to position. Especially if you did it yourself. I was unable to use the factory holddown tab on the engine as well, but my Napa hoses came with both sets of O-rings.

    M1008 / M1009 CUCV Oil Cooler Line Failure

    Installed the new oil cooler lines this morning. They were not fun... If you do it, make sure to pay close attention to how the lines sit and overlap each other going around the back of the engine. It also helps a lot to have somebody else help wiggle the lines around when trying to get the...

    M1008 / M1009 CUCV Oil Cooler Line Failure

    I believe that your '86 is safe because the recall was issued in August of 1985. So they were aware of this before that time. The 1984 is under the recall from what I have read. Just check the numbers stamped on the hoses to see if they match the recalled hoses like mine did. If the hose is...

    M1008 / M1009 CUCV Oil Cooler Line Failure

    I just wanted to bring to light a problem for pre-1985 M1008/09 owners. GM issued a recall for these vehicles and the civvy counterparts because of faulty oil cooler lines. I just found this out today when I went down to my garage and noticed the pool of oil on the floor. Thankfully, the line...
