Yeah, good call.

I was trying to see if I could find anything about the oil pan, but nothing came up.

It might not be beer, but will keep you posted since I haven't been down to VA in awhile!

Glad you got the car fixed up. You might want to add the part about draining the oil early in the DIY though, like at the top. Probably best to drain it before jacking up the car.

lol dearly noted and thanks update has been applied

I am trying to get nuts off from an exhaust hanger, but it's pain in the ***. I don't think anyone tried to take hanger out of my car for 14 years. I only taken 2 out of 6 nuts off from manifold so far. I even use the WD-40 to loose a nut a little bit, but it doesn't helps. Any suggest?

Nice. I do pans at work sometimes & they can be a pain even on a lift. I would never do one on the ground. But good on you for pulling it off.

Exhaust hanger nuts? Where? Use a 6point socket & a breaker bar.

I mean the nuts that hold an exhaust down pipe? Sorry for English or grammar.

Thanks for posting this!
