Take care in putting on the new oil pan.
I had to do mine twice because it keeped leaking.
My pan did have a ding in it, and it was that way when I got the car.
And it had also leaked when I got the car from the beging.
So my pan may have been warped a little.
But what a pain in the but it was to get it to stop leaking.
I ended up useing the black sealent on mine to get it to stop.
I hated to do that but after haveing to disconnect the motor mounts twice
and removeing the oil pan and cleaning it up with very little room, was a pain.
And then there was the trip down the steep drive way with the engine hoist the
car and me getting drug down the drive underneath it.
The only thing that save me that day was I parked my GMC van at the bottom of the drive just in case. If the car would have made it to the bottom of the drive I would have been crushed. I was haveing a new cement slab poured in front of my shop so I did not have a flat place to work on it at the time. I should have waited, it almost cost me.
