changing oil pan gasket on 95 Monte 3.4

[GJD5]

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.

I think you can do it that way too.

 

is this the 3.4 DOHC in the 95 MC?

Yeah, drop the subframe. You may only just have to undo the two rear bolts, while supporting the engine, may give JUST enough room..

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.

I scratch your back, you scratch mine? I've dropped plenty of sub-frames...

I'll probably get around to it sometime...you need some help with one of the cars?
