SOS Broken Drive Oil Fitting

[GreenEnergy28]

Drive oil fitting broke. Any leads on where I can get a replacement asap?

No help, but could you thread a brass barb fitting into the broken side, and run a hose? I don't know what pressure the thing needs to handle.

The piece that broke off is just a hose barb, and the other end goes over a smooth male fitting with an o-ring on it.

Some 3/8 fuel line, a 90° brass fitting (available at home depot or most auto parts stores) and a few hose clamps should get you through the weekend.

Any "good"Maocury dealer should have one in stock. Part # 22-865379

In a pinch you can put a rubber vacuum cap over the barb with a zip tie

Exactly what I was thinking about doing if I can’t get a hold of a new one.

Text the Barrett phone number or hit them up on instagram. AJ's crew has went above and beyond on weekends for many of us..

I did the brass fitting on my Daytona after I found it was cracked and leaking.

Now I just have to clean up all the F-ing gear oil. Such a mess from a few ounces of oil.
