Default Cooler lines question

Express 2500 6.0

When replacing the oil cooler lines does the coolant or oils have to be drained?

Thank you, Im assuming you mean a bit of oil will spill. The coolant is not in those lines.

no idea of your model year but all older gm oil coolers are air to air coolers so there is no connection to coolant
