side) of the skid using 2 screws (M933-10025-60)
and 2 nuts (M6923-10-80). See Figure 2 for
bracket position.
2.4 Secure the oil level gauge (227257) to the bracket
using 4 mounts (241769), 4 lock washers
(X-22-12), and 4 nuts (X-6210-2).
Note:
Use the upper set of holes in the mounting
bracket for assembly.
2.5 Install the coupling (X-567-1) into the oil gauge.
See Figure 2 for location.
2.6 Install the connector (X-582-5) into the back of the
oil level gauge.
2.7 Connect the pipe (X-209-2) to the bushing in the
oil pan.
2.8 Connect the pipe cross (X-207-7) to the pipe.
2.9 Connect the pipe plug (X-75-3) to the pipe cross

2.12 Place the restrictor plug (GM98574) in the other
end of the oil hose (X-422-18) and secure it to the
hose connector in the back of the oil gauge using a
hose clamp (X-426-12).
2.13 Cut the copper tubing at a slight angle at the
beginning of the arc. See Figure 2, item 1.
2.14 Attach one end of the hose (X-386-74) to the copper

Note:
Place hose clamps 6 mm (0.25 in.) from
the hose end and tighten.
2.15 Position the existing oil drain valve at the position
shown in Figure 2, item 16.
2.16 Remove the existing plate and replace with a new
cover plate (GM47418-WHT or GM47418-G49)
