why do you want me to waste your time . it was easy . you know where it is . im pretty sure everyone know how to unscrew a damn bolt . unless your a moron . the starter is also easy to remove . what did you wanna see me placing it and bolting it down . that would be useless .
changed my oil pan gasket on a 1971 chevy nova, disconnect battery, fan shroud, and fan to make it easier to turn engine over using crank damper bolt, place timing mark at 6 o'clock position, remove engine mount bolts, remove starter and oil filter, flywheel cover and oil. remove distributor cap to clear firewall when jacking engine up, 2x4 wood under mounts or something so it won't drop down, I removed my drag link from frame on passengers side for extra Clearance, remove bolts and drop oil pan. I jacked up engine using bottle jack and wood, car on ramps. timing mark is as 6 o'clock position to clear crank counter weights at front of engine. hope this helps someone, took me about 2.5 hrs. to do this.
I think it's a good video cause the title simply says installing the gasket doesn't say anything about removing the pan and I think it's a good video cause I've removed everything myself but am skeptic on installing the gasket this is the fourth video I've seen I don't want it to leak but the video has no ending
1991 GMC 1500 short box with 5.7 did it today didn't have to remove starter or oil cooler ,I ditched the oil cooler last year , I don't tow , the only bracket was the trans cooler on the passenger side , cleaned oil pan and painted the pan and torque converter cover , no more leaks with felpro gaskets . thanks for the clip , here's my truck now . czcams.com/video/-BDUuHcDqW4/video.html
How do you have your vehicle set up to install the pan? How did you get the cover back in? I got mine disassembled, cleaned up & all, but made the mistake of jacking the car (suburban) up a bit more so I had more room under the car. Big mistake. It changed the clearances & now I am trying to figure out where I had it before to get the pan back in place.
To remove pan get a floor jack, 2x4 abour 18 inches, socket set with 6 inches of extensions. remove exhaust crossover Remove trans inspection cover The bar that goes to drivers side block from cover has to come out. Remove motor mount bolts Remove air cleaner Put 2x4 on bottom of harmonic balancer and jack up engine as far as possible. Use 3/8th and 1/2 socket to take out pan bolts. Keep them in order. If your engine is high enough it will come right out. Clean up gasket surfaces Install in reverse order and rtv the front and rear seal humps.
if you didn't find anything useful then its because you already knew how to. if you can see you can realize how to pin it to the bottom .as i demonstrated . i only had to remove the starter to install the gasket . and the oil pan obviously lol
@@310smoker shoot I removed the oil filter housing and the bell housing it is still dangling up there now. Maybe I need to remove the exaust? Too much for a oil pan.
@@310smoker correct gasket number is felpro os 34509 other side should not be sticking out on 350 if dip stick is on driver side that's the correct gasket
Oil pan replacement video with no footage of removing the oil pan or reinstalling the oil pan very useless
Totally agree !!
its just nuts and bolts dude, got tools? figure it out, nothing about this or most auto work is hard, just time
You sho right wtf.....

you did all just to change the gasket. wow . good thing my van was way easier.
i still have the van
To remove and reinstall the pan you must remove the starter and just unbolt the other out the way.
Not true

i can answer any questions. and still own the van
@@310smoker has the oil pan leaked
You're not mentioning about the fact of what about the brace that goes underneath the engine.
were you able to squeeze the pan under those dowls and place it on? seems like the dowls the gasket came with might be in the way.
I was .
put the gasket on the oil pan, then install. much easier.
The clips they come with helped good . No problem
@@310smoker i didn't have enough space to get the pan by the dowels. and it fits very snug on the oil pan. 78 chevy van.
But how the he'll do u get the pan out with engine in
Jessica Steinauer it's not that easy
you do need to remove the starter . and a cover in the way .
THANKS
You really didn't show step by step bro.
👍

Quick question did u have to remove the rubber gasket under the timing chain cover or did u place it over it?
@@josebarrera3548 its all one peace
The engine is sitting on the top of the oil pan and I still can't remove it how you did it ?
you working on the same van . remove the starter .
It will still leak, its a chevy...lol every 350 ive owned new or old...leaked..
they always leak from the power steering in my experience. the motor is fine . still own it.
How many bolts was it?

Runnin' Rabbits Films it's a van I'm just under it . I did remove the starter . and this one pan
A how not to do it while high 😂
Well i did it you probably needed help .
Took me a min. But I got it up there

i did not jack up my van .
Jacking up at your harmonic balancer is horrible advice... 💀
how the hell you removed the pan while the engine is still in the car ?
you have to remove the starter ..
@@310smoker and did you lift the ending a little ???
How hard was it to get off on a scale of 1-10
You have to unbolt the starter. its not hard just frustrating
10 in frustration
What vehicle was this on
Thanks for nothing
