    really

    can we max out the size of photos or warn when someone downloads a full chip full. Also maybe cut photos oout of quotes? It takes forever to download.

    Wow, so, how was dropping the oil pan? Isn't there a cross member in the way that supports the motor???

    No Bart the lower oil pan is easy to remove. the cross member is right behind the pan so it dose not obstruct removal. although it did take a little persuasion to separate it once all the bolts were removed. I was thinking Ok...... the last bolt is off.... here comes the pan and all the leftover oil in it...... Nope, had to use a hammer and screwdriver to break the seal.

    Of course i drained the oil first.

    Cool, from looking at it, it looked like there is enough room, but I wasn't sure.
