Hi all, about a year and a half ago I replaced the radiator in my late 94 850. I could find no information on the two transmission cooler lines that go to the trans cooler, specifically the fittings that seal/lock the lines to the radiator cooler, I don't remember how I removed them, what number of O-rings or where they were....I have noticed a good amount of loss of transmission fluid located at these fittings.... the last topping off required 5qts. I have ordered and received a complete kit from F.C.P.Euro, included is 4 small green o-rings, 2 thicker semitransparent o-rings and 2 metal locking cages, i would like to know if anyone has any information on the proper removal / installation of these parts?????? Thanks in advance!!!!

Those metal cages are the locks. Pry them out with a small pick, then the line pulls straight out of the fitting. Put the new O rings on with a little ATF on them, seat the line fully, and push the new lock in until it clicks. Five quarts is a lot to lose, so check the level again after a drive.
