Leaky oil pan gasket.

can i replace the gasket with the motor in the car? will i be able to remove the pan?

Thanks

Yes , you will need to remove motor mount bolts and lift eng. up for clearance and besure to get a pickup tube gasket . HTH

John thanks for the info.

i'm not able to use a cherry picker or block and tackle.

if i use a wood block and floor jack it up by the damper.
is that going to be alright?

[guyopel]

Yes just be sure to be safe so that eng. does not roll off blocks , put blocks under the motor mounts when you get eng. lifted enough to pull oil pan .Good luck .
