transmission cooler line size?

My 93 7.3 IDI with the automatic (E4OD) doesn't appear to use the common 3/8" ID rubber cooler line - it's loose on the barbs on the radiator cooler. Anyone know the proper size of the stock rubber line that connects the steel cooler lines to the radiator?

And... Is there a special grade of hose or will fuel line work?

The proper hose is "transmission oil cooler" (TOC) hose. It will be marked on the casing along with possibly the SAE J1532 spec. The diameter is usually 11/32" but it is available in 3/8" and 5/16" as well. Fuel line isn't meant to take the heat and pressure
