GJD5 Posted November 28, 2008 Report Share Posted November 28, 2008 The repair manual says to remove the subframe to change the oil pan gasket...has anyone done there's by just lifting the engine up a little with a hoist? I really don't want to remove the subframe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't want to remove the subframe. I think you can do it that way too. is this the 3.4 DOHC in the 95 MC? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slick Posted November 28, 2008 Report Share Posted November 28, 2008 Yeah, drop the subframe. You may only just have to undo the two rear bolts, while supporting the engine, may give JUST enough room.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya, it's the DOHC...since the oil pan is the only leak left on this car...it would be nice to fix it. But I'm not feeling the motivation right now to drop the subframe.
