Does oil flow through oil
return hose?
Proceed with normal
operations.

hose. Make sure it is cool before
handling. Try blowing air through
the hose.
Can you blow
air through it?
Submerge hose in very hot water,
keeping the water out of the hose.
Water in the hose will cause severe
splattering when hot oil is circulated
through the hose.
Once shortening has had time
to soften, reconnect hose to
