You can't find SH!T for useful information on the internet anymore! Rant.
Try looking up specifications on repairing anything or modifying things in order to better fix factory flaws. All you get is websites trying to sell you the same junk you need to avoid.
Hell try looking up the oil cooler line size for a 1994 Chevy K-1500. You won't find it!! A few years ago this would have been easy. Anyways I measured 1/2 inch so hopefully that's right. END OF RANT.

I'm using the Qwant search engine lately. And now when I search flat earth or fake moon landing on Qwant, I don't get the first 15 pages of results being pages debunking it like you would on Google. On Google, if you type in flat earth, it returns the results as if you typed in debunks of the flat earth.

Finding anything with a degree of specificity has become harder and harder.
What's frustrating is that you KNOW it's there.

I also thought 3/8, maybe that's the I.D. but I need the O.D. for the right size compression fittings. Pretty sure it's 1/2 inch O.D., thank you.

Yes, it's become very bad over the past decade, prior to 2010 or so it was EASY to find information on exactly what you needed, without much effort.

Now you can tell that things are being massively censored!

 Quoting: Black Unit

You tube actually does cover this exact topic, but I guess I just haven't found the right video yet. That's why I thought it was 3/8 inch tube and it may be 3/8 I.D. but I need O.D. so with what I have to measure with it appears to be 1/2 inch O.D. Harbor Freight calibers are junk BTW.

I entered a search term about how to fix a plumbing problem and the first several entries were plumbers trying to get you to use their services. One said if it wasn’t fixed there would be flooding. Well…we figured it out after talking to friends…no flooding whatsoever and it was cheap to fix.
