-AN10 Oil Return Lines - Evo / Colt - MR258477
My car uses a MR258477 oil return gasket which I believe is common place on Mitsubishi turbos.
Hence i believe i can retrofit evo or vr4 oil returns.
What a bitch it was, wrong bolts were supplied. Oil drain attachment flange had to be cut and refaced. The turbo vband didn't provide enough clearnce.
AN (Army-Navy) Fitting Thread Size Chart
AN Size Hose Size Thread Size mm
-3 3/16 3/8-24 SAE 4.7625
-4 1/4 7/16-20 SAE 6.3500 <- what I plan to use to upgrade the boost control system
-6 3/8 9/16-18 SAE 9.5250 <- what I plan to use to replace fuel lines
-8 1/2 3/4-16 SAE 12.7000
-10 5/8 7/8-14 SAE 15.8750 <- whats used in this kit
-12 3/4 1-1/16 SAE 19.0500
-16 1 1-5/16 SAE 25.4000
-20 1-1/4 1-5/8 SAE
<Sump fitting
Resurface the flange >
Another common fraction:
5/16 7.9375mm
< OH LOOK> NO CLEARANCE FOR A SOCKET!
-AN10, new gasket and loctite no3

How it should have been designed, had to go get new proper bolts!
I believe this was included in my kit:
2 x AN-10 to M16 x 1.5 Metric Straight Adapter
1 x AN-10 X 90deg. Push lok barbed hose fitting
1 x AN-10 X Straight. Push lok barbed hose fitting
2 x oil drain adapters
2 x MR258477
2 x M6x1mm (useless! not enough clearance to use them, had to go get allen key bolts)
<Can u see i temporary looped it>
AN fittings are to large and interfered with each other

Back in 2010 I did a cork gasket install -
done a standard oil change...going to dyno soon wanna get car ready...
notice a while ago the gasket on the oil return line to the sump was leaking...
made a new gasket out of cork, hope it holds
added an oil temp sensor i got from a friend...will wire it up another day, but it is mounted...used teflon tape to seal
used the evo oil filter it is not as long, hence more clearance Z436
