How do you remove oil pan the right way?

[Maple50175]

Im going to attempt to swap my bros oil pan to my car thurs/fri so my cars good by the meet.

I was wondering if anyone knew the proper way to do it. I really dont want to remove the downpipe to get it off.


Can i get in there with a small ratchet to remove the 10mm bolts?

LMK I wanna do this as quickly as possible

Also, since im broke, i dont have any money on a new gasket. If i clean off the old one and add a little hondabond think it should hold up for a few weeks?

LMK I need to take care of this fast

YOu need to drop the DP either way just unbolt the 3 14mm off the cat and where it connects to the header. You can try some hondabond or reuse the old gasket with some on there and that should hold for a while. Thats if the old gasket aint fucked up.

youll also have to drop that cross beam, but thats easy.

you can reuse the OP gasket if its not crusty and cracking, but judging by the fact that your car is at a point where the oil pan is actually rusted thru to a point of leakage, i have a feeling the gasket wont be very easily reused...

But why would you, it's so cheap..... I wouldn't think of risking having to replace it at a later date. Just my 2 cents.

i personally would never ever reuse a gasket like that. but this is maple, remember

i dont remember if you need to remove the trans cover to access the last 2 10 mm bolts. I know i had to do that on an auto, but im unsure abuot the 5 spd

man when workin on a car its not good to cut corners. gaskets arent that expensive. if u cant afford to buy one then u shouldnt drive the car till you can buy a fresh new gasket.

becuase it's 28$ and I dont have 28 for a fucking gasket. Jesus.

If i dont drive car, I cant work, then I cant have money, See my point?

seems like this is gonna be a task becuase the cross bar bolts are all rusted and prob will stripp. JOY.

well if you dont have $28 for a gasket, do you really have EXTRA money to waste on gas and go to a meet?

but i doubt youll be able to reuse your old gasket...mine was brocken alot and i didnt have as bad a problem as you do

[Maple50175]

Im just going to make it. Im not putting any money into it.
