![]() Actually it's pretty clean now, I cleaned it to death after replacing the PS pump and valve cover gaskets, the whole top of the motor is clean, but the oil pan rear drivers side corner is wet now. The leakage rate dropped dramatically, after 2000 miles the oil level is still above the add/full mark, approx 1/2 quart low or so (5 quarts brings it well above the add/full mark)
I was hoping not to pull the motor out, but maybe I would waste more time trying to get the pan out in the car, the book says I have to move the rack out of the way, yuck. I pulled the oil pan on my Chevy with the motor installed, and did it on my buddys 56 Big block bel air. Not too worried about jacking up the motor BTDT it's clearing the rack and crossmember ------------------ Frank W 90 5.0 LX coupe Daily driver. Silencer removed, K&N filter.
