Oil pan leak?

andOil pan leak?
1)Drain the oil


2)Drop the oil pan


3) Remove/Scrape off old gasket


4) Put new gasket on w/ oil pan


5) Clean around outside with brake clean or carb/choke clean


6) Add new oil and filter if bad


7) Check for leaksOil pan leak?
Possible. You could have a bad oil pan gasket, the drain plug could be stripped, or you could have a crack or hole in the oil pan.





Oh, and first answer is best answer. ';And?'; is fitting because you aren't really asking a question.
brake squeak?
If its leaking, is the gasket squished out? this will damage the seal, drop the pan and change the gasket.... wouldn't mess with any stopleaks..... lol, most are just very thick oils with little or no seal swellers in them....
probably oil pan gasket,or drain plug stripped out or just not tight,check drain plug for tightness,if thats not the problem then you will have to replace the gasket,or maybe you have a small hole in your oil pan,,,wipe oil pan clean,run the engine for a couple min. then you should be able to see where oil is leaking from,,also try tightening bolts for oil pan,may have come loose....good luck....
