You don't have to remove the engine

Drain engine oil and remove oil pan bolts.
Clean oil pan and all gasket surfaces.
Install new end gaskets and reinstall oil pan.
Tighten screws M8 to 23 N-m (200 in. lbs.) and M6 screws to 12 N-m (105 in.lbs.).

In here we don't play around we mean business and to help people in need of car repairs paid or not-but maybe someday you can consider a small amount of donation to keep this website going for everyone-
