- This is my 94 dodge ram 1500 v8 5.9 2wd. Needed to remove the oil pan to access the oil pump. First drain your oil, remove your dipstick. Remove your starter and plate around the bell housing.
Bolts on the pan are 13mm
Trans to engine bracket are 14/15mm
Starter bolt and nut are 5/8
Oil pump bolts are 14mm
Bell housing plate is 7/16
Hope this helps you out!
Great video, I noticed my oil pan gasket was leaking a bit during my last oil change, I'll definitely be doing this job very soon
Great video! Thanks for sharing!👍
Thank you sir. Saved me 3,000
She said take the dipstick out before having the baby. That makes sense to me 😵💫🤓
I have the 1994 dodge ram B250 trying to remove the oil pan is a pain, not enough clearance between the outer bottom oil pan and the cross member I haven't t removed the oil dipstick maybe that's what is holding the oil pan. I'm not for sure, I will try again the next day and give it a go any tips or suggestions to help pull this thing out?
When your taking about your gasket oil pan gasket I seen it, check video the part that unexplaining about the gasket
If you have fluctuating oil pressure, it also pays to check your pressure sensor and connector before dropping the pan.
Nice video. I am going to change my oil pan in my 2001 ram plow truck next week. The pan rusted out and is pissing oil. I was hoping to do it in spring/summer with nice weather, but I can't wait any longer and still use the truck. I appreciate your info on bolt sizing and your video of you dropping the pan. I was worried it wouldn't clear the cross member, but looks like you got it out of there fairly easily. Thanks again!!!!
Thank you ! Its not too bad, just sucks that theres very little room to workaround. Hope it helps you out thanks for watching👍🏼👍🏼
Hell wait till summer I'd use JB weld all over the bottom of the oil pan basically create a shell that way you can make it to at least spring just don't go near the oil pan bolts
@@tylerknight4723 Might of been able to do that, but meh, I don't like rigging stuff. I swapped it out last January in like 10 degree weather on my driveway. It wasn't so bad.
Or a tooth off a nylon timing gear. The oil pressure going up and down was probably the sender
without having to lift the engine! you have to do the main bearings
Look like you have a broken engine mount bolt too, looks like it, key word
What minute did you see it at, i should probably check it out!
You should do a video on how to put it back on but changing the rear main seal also
I will look into it !
@@jesusalvarezsayula1784 did you figure out how to put rear main seal in ??
@@donking8662 hey man, no i havent actually its been sitting for a while im in the process of painting it but if i do end up doing the seal i will post a video
10 4 that will be a big help for me , im finna have to do the seal on my 01 dodge 4x4
I am guessing that's part of a timing gear
Looks like a chewed up valve seal. Umbrella type. Some are white plastic
I have a 1995 ram van 2500. 5.9 engine. I was told I had a bad oilpan gasket and it was easy to replace so I bought all the stuff I needed and tried to do it myself. Didn't know I had to lift the engine. I got the pan detached but I can't remove it. There's too many obstructions. I removed the starter and the brackets holding the transmission to the engine. The pan won't drop down.
Im not a auto mechanic. Just your average DIY cat. Does anyone have any advice? I'd sure appreciate it. Thanks.
Jack the engine up with wood underneath the oil pan. Unscrew the motor mounts and jack up and put wood under the motor mounts
@@stanleygardner146 great tip
You mentioned that it was struggling to accelerate was this really the solution to that my pressure has been dropping as well
Yes it worked for me, i think that rock blocking the screen was the actual problem lol. But just went ahead and changed the pump anyway
Also my oil pressure sensor was burnt up pretty bad so i changed that too.
I have the same truck did u have to Jack up the motor to get the oil Pan out
Sorry bout the late reply, yes i did my truck is lowered 3 inches up front
@the Accountant the lowering? I bought it like that but i believe its a 3 inch lowering spring and djm control arms or calmax.
@@jesusalvarezsayula1784 I'm wondering the same question. Jesus did you have to jack up the engine? Not is ur truck lowered
@@Rchan925 fortunately no i didnt have to lift the engine up, i was able to get it out witj engine in place, mine is a 1994 5.9, 2wd..46rh trans if that helps.
@@jesusalvarezsayula1784 thank you It does
Did your truck get fixed with the pump and pickup replacement?
Yeah it works good now, i also had a burnt up oil pressure switch that i changed out too.
@@jesusalvarezsayula1784 Did you prime the pump?
@@keithsims86 how do you do that
As soon I looked at your video
Ill take a look at it, thanks 🤙
Is this a 2wd or 4x4?
Its a 2wd
It was a pain in the ass to put in
It really is. It helps to use zip tied in a few bolt holes to hold the gasket in place
@@jesusalvarezsayula1784 really appreciate the zip tie idea!
You said V8?
Yes, v8 5.9
@@jesusalvarezsayula1784 I thought come inside a straight 6
I just don’t Understand why Most of Guys that Fix on vehicles never wear protection glasses so any dirt or fluids dropping in their eyes
