RX1 Engine Oil System Question

[treewhacker]

I was wondering if anyone here knows which way the oil flows from the oil tank. Am I correct to assume that the braided line on the bottom of the tank is supply, meaning the engine oil pump is sucking oil from the tank through this line? If so, any idea how much vacume in this 3/4 line. Thanks in advance.

Yes , that bottom of tank line brings oil to oil pump...

My turbo is fed off of an adapter at the oil filter and there is 60 psi out of it.

There is less than 30" Hg of vacuum in that braided line. Are you thinking of using it to do the oil return from a turbo? Been there, done that...
