Re: Oil pan gasket replacement
Do you mean actually taking the pan out of the car? You are going to have to since you will have to clean up the gasket surfaces on both the block and the pan. Otherwise you run the risk of having pieces of old gasket left on the block/pan and not getting a good seal, then it'll leak again.
I guess you could leave it in the car, but you will have to lift the engine up far enough to get the pan loose and the gasket out that you will be able to just slide it out at that point. No easy way out on this one.
