05 LSV oil drain hose replacement
Hello all, it appears that the hose fitting on my oil drain hose has sprung a leak and is draining oil into the bilge. Has anyone been able to change this hose out without having to lift the engine? There is not a lot of room between the oil pan and the hull. From what I can feel, there is a 90 degree fitting from the oil pan to the hose that I may be able to un screw, but there is no way that I can fit a wrench around the hose fitting that goes into the 90 degree fitting. Some of the mechanics that I have spoken with have said that the engine may need to be lifted to change the hose. If this is the case, has anyone tried this, or should I not waste my time and take it to a shop with an engine lift.
If anyone has changed this and has any pointers, I would be very appreciative.
Thanks!
