We have a beautiful Red & Silver 1995 F-150, but she is leaking oil from her oil pan it is rusted from the inside out...Does anyone know how to change the oil pan? Do we really have to lift the engine and disconnect a bunch of stuff? And does it really take 8 Hours to do all of this? Any help you all can give would really be appreicated...Thanks

 

Yes i'm afraid you have to lift the engine in order to take out the oil pan, when u lift the engine it's gonna go up pretty high unbolt the motor mounts. I wouldnt say 8hrs for that job i would have had it done in 2 but i had to clean carbon build up and install a new oil pump

 

this is actually a very comon problem....also a new pan is not cheap....

 

Thanks for your replies We really appreicate it....Actually we found a pan here close for $65 so that was not to bad and we decided to do the work ourselves with some help from a stepson who woks at a shop with a lift...So wish us Luck
