wnaplay1647545503 Posted April 15, 2006 Report Share Posted April 15, 2006 Well I need to replace the oil pan gasket on my 95 e150. I know I need to raise the engine but does anyone know how much and wether I can just hook the hoist to the engine and remove the bolts from the mounts and get enough room to get the pan off. I would rather not disconnect anything if I dont have to. Any suggestions? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wnaplay1647545503 Posted April 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2006 I will also be accepting prices to have this fixed. At least until I decide if I want to do it myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Removed Posted April 16, 2006 Report Share Posted April 16, 2006 I ve seen people just pull the pan down some, pull the old one out slip the new one in and be done!!!Pop the nut's off the motor mount's and lift the motor up some, helps alot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wnaplay1647545503 Posted April 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2006 Tucking it under the oil pump will prove to be difficult. Besides, it is a pain to get under, and the intake will probably need to come off to raise the engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Removed Posted April 16, 2006 Report Share Posted April 16, 2006 4.9L or V-8?302 or 351...You buy the oil, and gasket(s, if needed), I'll put my bid in at $150.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balian Posted April 17, 2006 Report Share Posted April 17, 2006 I will vouch for Rob..He has done work for me and it was top notch.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wnaplay1647545503 Posted April 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2006 I was a little leary when he sayed to tuck it under the pump. It will get oil on it and could possible rip. Does he have a lift or a garage or what? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does he have a lift or a garage or what? Ive seen poeple do it this way (Ford tech's ), I dont do it that way..I like taking the hole pan off, to get everything clean, in order to seal it up good! I wish i had a lift in the garage but i dont... Ive been working in my garage, or my other garge(It has the big compressor, ) Everyone keep's pushing me to open my own shop, Im still kicking ideas around!! I figure, cut you a deal, and get some work going, till I find another shop to work at! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
