Need help installing crack pipe

[werd_103]

ok so i finally got around to installing the new cooling plastics and when i try to put the crack pipe in and tighten the other end on it doesn't seem to go in past the rubber seal on the block end .



im thinking its because its not quite going in straight



because its hitting on this.



any help would be great

also i can't move it down to much because it hits against the hose that comes out of the block to the oil cooler

All good guys i just needed to lube up before i jammed it in.

Just did the crack pipe and thermostat housing last Sunday, Thought mine was catching but just gave it a wiggle, making sure it was in the correct orientation (outlets in the right position) and it all lined up easy. I guess just make sure everything is clean and correctly lined up. I also used a little bit of grease just to make sure none of the seals caught, or fell out/off.

I'm much happier now, no water leaks anymore!
