Default Oil Metering Lines
Hello everyone,

I have a 1986 non-turbo automatic. I did some work on the metering unit, and all four lines broke. I tried to use a brass coupler to mend them, but they were all so brittle that they just kept snapping and deteriorating.

Now I have a few questions.

How Important are the lines?
If I block off the mettering unit and pour oil into the gas tank, will everything be okay?

At what rate is the oil released into the motor? How much PSI is the oil being sent though the lines?

Are there other material I can use besides the plastic lines?

If I do replace all of the lines, I know I will have to remove the intake manifold. If I do this, are there any gaskets I will have to replace?

Thanks a lot for your time. Any and all help will be appreciated.
