Is it 100% necessary to remove the oil pan when removing the oil pump, or could those 5 or so bolts be taken out and then just slip out the pump and re-seal it upon re-installing?
The one annoying thing about this fix (beside removal and install of timing belt) is taking off the oil pan, and cutting that out of the picture would cut down the fix time so...yay...or nay -------------------- 1995 GT::::Diffusing the Situation エキサイティングカーレーシングチーム! march 2010 COTM : 6GC feature 2014 : january 2015-2016-2018 COTM |

i believe it is that gasket but I was thinking of replacing the crankshaft seal (just to be sure even thought it doesnt leak)
Might just do that gasket first and see if that does the trick. I'll add a couple dabs of fipg too. maybe thatll be the extra bit to keep it from leaking! i swear ive probably leaked a total of 20+ gallons over the past however long its been leaking. thanks for the tid bit -------------------- 1995 GT::::Diffusing the Situation エキサイティングカーレーシングチーム! march 2010 COTM : 6GC feature 2014 : january 2015-2016-2018 COTM |
