Oil Metering Lines

Thanks a lot Ferocious.

The good thing is that I have not been driving it since the line incident.

The zero psi really surprised me. I know the oil pump can hit 110psi when the peddles down.

I'm trying to go about this in an economical way. At 20 -30 dollars a line, that's a lot of cash. I can afford it, but I don't want too. Since there is near zero psi, what's stopping me from using other cheaper materials? Why did Mazda choose to use plastic?

I want to avoid putting oil in the fuel tank. I'm worried about gunking things up.
