(to enlarge pictures just click on them)How do I replace the oil pan on a 92 ford aerostar?
Oil Pans are beneath the vehicle, so a good pair of lift jackets would help. After you drain the oil from the vehicle there is a bolt that has to be loosened just forward of the pan to drain the system after the draining stops re tighten the bolt. Remove the old pan and clean the area around the seal to remove any fine partical debri prior to instalation of the new gasket %26amp; pan. Then fill the vehicle with oil and away you go.

take the old one out and put the new one in durrrrrrrr

What causes shavings in an oil pan ?

There should never be any shavings in an oil pan for any reason. Something is binding and getting ready to go out. Sooner or later you will find ou twhen it breaks.What causes shavings in an oil pan ?
There are a lot of reasons why you could find shavings, but if this is a new car it's normal for some of the metal shavings to appear until after the ';break in'; period. What causes shavings in an oil pan ?
Not good. Sounds like a piston or something that is rubbing.
What kind of car? It could be a bad oil pump, bad main bearings, broken or bad cylinder rings. There will always be a few shavings, but if the oil looks like metalic paint, you have a serious problem.

Has anyone ever removed the oil pan from a 93 2wd s10 pickup with a 4.3 with the motor still in the truck?

Sounds like it would be the same fun as the tranny pan..... I believe the issue would be the Y pipe, other than that, being careful, I dont see why not...Has anyone ever removed the oil pan from a 93 2wd s10 pickup with a 4.3 with the motor still in the truck?
It's kind of hard to understand why anybody would want to.

Can i get to the crankshaft from the oil pan on a 98 chevy cavalier?

Well, if you remove the oil pan, the crank is right there. I'm not sure what you mean by ';get to it';. but yeah, it's there. You can't remove it though without removing the engine. but you can change bearings and stuff. It's a lot easier with the engine out.

  • Why does oil always pool to one side of my frying pan?

    Is it because I have cheap frying pans? Uneven stove? Is it supposed to do that? It frustrates me when I am trying to stir fry and such. Any suggestions?Why does oil always pool to one side of my frying pan?
    Either your stove or your burner is not level. Adjust it by slipping a samll pieceo of wood under the low side. You need a level to get it perfect. Or just guage it by putting water in the pan and adding a wooden wedge or something sturdy under the leg till the water is level in the pan.Why does oil always pool to one side of my frying pan?
    Sounds like your stove is not level. There are legs on your stove that can screw up or down. use a level on top of your stove and screw legs in and out till it is level.


    Also could be your pan is warped, if so , you need a new frying pan.
    something isn't level starting at the floor and going up the pan itself. Could be any of them.
    Purchase a better pan, one with a solid base.
    Stove or burner aren't level, or pan is warped. It happens to me too, with old pans that I didn't care for properly..
    maybe your stove top isnt level
    it is probably that your pan is not level, one of my big frying pans does the same thing but not all my pans so its the pan
    either your stove isnt level or the pan isnt level.. Happens to me too~ damn unlevel crap!!!
    Your stove may be uneven, there is a leg on the bottom of your stove so you can twist it to even it out more, if you don't have a leg then try putting a piece of cardboard under it.
    Something isn't level.


    Anything you may have mentioned.
    it shouldn't do that...reasons being:





    -your frying pan is slanted, either it was bought that way or you took a hot pan off the stove and ran cold water over it, [this warps some pans]





    -your stove is uneven





    -your pan is just layn on the stove top so that the strongest part of the heat is at a certain spot on the bottom of the pan. The oil will naturally ';run away'; from the highest concentration of heat





    no worries though, it shouldn't mess anything up

    How many quarts is a 1990 5.0 Ford Mustang's oil pan?

    5 quarts and make sure you pull both drain plugs. The 5 liter ford engine has 2 plugs on your car one in the front and one in the back of your oil pan.How many quarts is a 1990 5.0 Ford Mustang's oil pan?
    probable 4 and 1/2 qt if you change the filterHow many quarts is a 1990 5.0 Ford Mustang's oil pan?
    actually it is 5.3 quarts with the filter but stop at 5 but this is the correct number of quarts it will hold
    5 Quarts Only, with a filter change. Always is and always will be. Have fun:)
    AS MUCH AS YOU ARE
    How many did you put there? Seriously, a 5.0 is a small block V/8. Ford's engines require 5 Quarts with the filter. If you change oil and don't replace the filter (stupid idea) you'll only be 4 quarts down.

    Oil from frying pan flys onto kitchen wall what to do?

    its a brand new house and the cooking range is quite close to the wall, i mean can we like spread something over the walls? and how do u get oil stains off the walls?





    im not sure what type if paint the builders used but its definatly not water resistant.Oil from frying pan flys onto kitchen wall what to do?
    Put a splash panel up, then you can just wipe it clean.Oil from frying pan flys onto kitchen wall what to do?
    To clean the walls from the splattering oil or grease in general, I heard vinegar and water does a good job on painted walls. There are also some degreasing products in the kitchen section of the market that might be suitable if you check the labels.





    To prevent the oil from popping all over the place from the pan, you need a 'splatter guard' like this:


    http://www.flickr.com/photos/cookthink/2742915594/


    They're like a siev but for placing over pans.
    You obviously do not have a back splash behind your stove. This is something usually made of ceramic tile, metal or some other material that does not absorb grease splatter and is easily washed that is on the wall behind or around the top of the stove. If these things are not an option, a high gloss paint will work just as well. Do not use wall paper or contact paper!


    As for the grease already on the wall, you will need to clean the wall with a degreaser, can be found in the paint section of Lowes or Home Depot. Then paint the wall with a primer (such as KILLS) that will keep any remaining grease from bleeding thru the paint. Then paint with a high gloss paint that will be easier to keep clean.


    Hope this helps with your problem!
    Take a damp (not soaking wet) sponge with Dawn Liquid detergent.





    Also, you can try Mr. Clean Magic Eraser, rub gently.





    It works for us all the time and does not remove the paint.

    Do you use vegetable oil when cooking ground beef in a pan?

    I'm not sure if the beef provides its own grease (I'm trying to make Hamburger Helper, I can't cook...)Do you use vegetable oil when cooking ground beef in a pan?
    I would spray it with cooking spray.





    If you have non-stick you won't need it.Do you use vegetable oil when cooking ground beef in a pan?
    it depends on what kind of pan and ground beef you are using, nonstick pan use pan spray no matter what kind of beef it is


    regular skillet - use a little olive oil it is better for you, if you don't have use veg. oil just a little


    if you are using reg ground beef it should have enough fat in it, if using ground chuck or ground sirloin you will need a little oil


    make sure after you cook the meat to drain it (do not pour down sink) before adding the other ingredients


    lots of luck
    I make Hamburger Helper all the time.You don't need anything. Not even in a regular pan. The fat from the meat cooks out and the meat will not stick, unless your hamburger is very low fat. While the hamburger is browning just stir and chop it up as it fries. Just follow the directions on the box and it will be fine.
    Follow whatever it says on the box. However, I personally very seldom ever use oil. Pan spray is better when cooking meat. Don't use High temp. either or the meat will burn on the outside %26amp; be raw inside. If I must use oil, I use either olive or canola. Not near as many (if any) trans fats.
    No, meat comes with enough grease! it doesn't matter if you have a non stick pan or not. No additional oil lis neededs. defrost your meat and cook until it is completely brown. If you are cooking it and the pan you use starts to smoke, the temperature is up to high.
    No, you don't need to use oil, the beef has plenty of grease.





    Make sure to drain the grease out the pot before you add the other ingredients in the box or it might come out slimy.
    In a nonstick pan, you don't need any.





    Any other pan, you can spray the pan with cooking spray or just use a small amount of oil. Maybe a tablespoon and spread it around the skillet with a spatula.
    The beef will have enough fat. You will also need to drain the fat after the beef is fully cooked. Otherwise, the hamburger helper will taste terrible. Drain as much as possible before going to the next step.
    No, the grease from the beef will be plenty enough. be sure to drain it off though. :) i %26lt;3 Hamburger helper just had some last night :D. hope you enjoy
    I use peanut oil


    a tsp just to coat the bottom
    I would use beef broth.
    no! never! once meat starts to brown it releases oils

    Oil pan for a honda civic 99 ex?

    well i have a problem with my oil pan i need to change the oil pan im goin to the junk yard tommorow just wondering can 92-00 honda civic fit in a d16y8 SOHC motor? even if the motor is not v-tec? d15 motors?Oil pan for a honda civic 99 ex?
    Get the oil pan for a D16Y8.





    92-95 was the D16Z6


    96-00 D16Y8





    Although, the oil pan for the 96-00 DX, (D16Y7) should fit.

    What size wrench do i need to take the bolt off of my oil pan on a 1999 mercury tracer?

    buy a set not just one tool ... and you can buy a adjustable one that will do the job.. and dont forget to buy a oil filter wrench ... a set of tools is always a smart thing to have really if your going to be working on your on car ore fixing one that is broken down on the road side they will last a life time... buy a small set any store autozone or walmart ubetween 25 and 50 bucks then you wil always have the right tool for the job.. buying one at a time will cost you more. and 14 or a 20mm i think... adjustable wrench ten bucksWhat size wrench do i need to take the bolt off of my oil pan on a 1999 mercury tracer?
    You mean the drain plug. I don't know exactly, but you can use a largish adjustable wrench as long as it's high quality. If you aren't comfortable using tools, forget the adjustable. You can strip the bolt. Go crazy and take a few sizes under the car with you. You aren't going to save that much over a quick lube place, but hey...go for it. What size wrench do i need to take the bolt off of my oil pan on a 1999 mercury tracer?
    I went to Sears and bought a ';box end wrench'; 16mm on one end and 18mm on other end. It fits about 99% of drain bolts on oil pans. The 16mm is close to 5/8 inch and the 18mm is fairly close to 3/4 inch. I used it when I worked at a Ford dealer ship and never found a Ford product it wouldn't fit.
    99mercury tracer is probly a 9/16th wrench or a metric 14...
    pay the 25 dollars.

  • How bad is it to cook boneless skinless chicken breats in a frying pan with extra vigin olive oil?

    Is it high in fat?


    Is it high in cholesterol?


    I usually bake boneless skinless chicken breasts. But, a recipe I want to try says to cook the chicken in extra virgin olive oil. How bad is this for me?How bad is it to cook boneless skinless chicken breats in a frying pan with extra vigin olive oil?
    Frying chicken breasts in extra virgin olive oil is probably the best thing you could do short of baking them. Olive oil (especially extra virgin) is one of the best things on the planet for you. It's high in monounsaturated fat, which your body needs to metabolize certain vitamins. Oh, did I mention olive oil is a great natural appetite suppressant and helps get your cholesterol levels where they need to be? Getting olive oil into your diet, any way you can, is good for your health. And if you're frying boneless skinless chicken breasts, you'll have VERY LITTLE saturated fat and VERY LITTLE cholesterol.How bad is it to cook boneless skinless chicken breats in a frying pan with extra vigin olive oil?
    awesome, its such a quick dinner to make. now i just need to force myself to run/walk everyday :) Report Abuse

    All cooking oils (the good ones and the bad ones) are about 100 calories per tablespoon. If you are trying to lose weight then you might want to consider using a non-stick pan instead.
    It doesnt sound bad to me. Olive oil is the healthiest you can cook with. Just dont turn the heat too high because it burns easily.
    The only real problem with frying is the compound you fry it in. In your case with EVOO you're fine. Canola is good to fry with too. otherwise, the only difference is the method of heating, right? As long as you only use a tablespoon or so, and don't coat in in something unhealthy, then you're totally fine. No different than baking! Just make sure not too cook too hot...EVOO smokes easily.
    I haven't a clue as to how many calories, etc. but I do know that cooking in olive oil is said to be much better for you than vegetable oil. You should Google it for the fat and calorie content. Or, just look on the bottle of olive oil.
    The olive oil has a lot of fat, but it is a good type of fat, so enjoy!
    That is actually one of the healthiest ways to cook it. Olive oil is the only oil that is easily processed by your body, it is actually good for you. Plus it doesn't dry out the chicken like baking it does.

    How long do I fry chicken cutlets? Also, how much oil should I use in the pan?

    I want them to be nice and moist. They are the thin sliced cutlets.How long do I fry chicken cutlets? Also, how much oil should I use in the pan?
    well when i make cutlets, i dip them in beaten egg, the coat them with breadcrumbs or cornmeal, ( cornmeal is healthier and crunchier), and fry two or three at a time in a hot pan with about 1/4 cup oil.... make sure the oil is hot before you put your chicken in the pan or the coating soaks up the oil and gets soggy. about 2-3 minutes on each side on med hi... you can tell when it is cooked because the meat turns from pink to white....


    cook the same amount of time without the breading on it....How long do I fry chicken cutlets? Also, how much oil should I use in the pan?
    Thin is an arbitrary term.


    But...


    The oil should just barely be enough to cover the bottom half of the thickest cutlet.


    Then once the oil is hot enough, the cutlets should be cooked no more than 1 minute on each side. First try 1 cutlet to see if it is all cooked thru. IF not, extend the cooking time by about 15 seconds on each side. If after only 1 min on each side, they are not moist enough, reduce cooking time by 10 secondes on each side.


    Good Luck

    On my 93 f150. I have the oil pan off I just need advice on the oil pump.?

    the pump works by squezing the oil through two gears. and this cereates pressure.. if you are uncertain replace it and the filter.. its cheap.. the only thing that can go wrong is a pressure relier valve ..but i never heard of any trouble. http://motors.shop.ebay.com/items/___W0Q鈥?/a> here are some pumps why do you want advise.. make shure you clean that pan so you could eat from it and install good gaskets. ok.On my 93 f150. I have the oil pan off I just need advice on the oil pump.?
    You arent giving much information, what do you kneed to know about the oil pump?On my 93 f150. I have the oil pan off I just need advice on the oil pump.?
    Just make sure you install it with a torque wrench. Most oil pumps do not have a gasket between the block and pump. It is very important to have the pick up tube/screen installed exactly as you found the original. there's normally a slight angle to the pick up tube/screen and this needs to be duplicated on the new tube/screen. Best to take the old pump with the tube/screen still attached to a machine shop and have them pound the new tube/screen to the pump and finish it with a small weld or braze to keep the tube from moving or falling out after the new pump is installed. Also, use one of those high performance steel collared oil pump shafts rather than the old shaft with the plastic sleeve that always crumbles with age.





    Since you have the oil pan off and the engine upside down you might as well change the main and rod bearings since this is the #1 cause of low oil pressure. Changing the pump will not change the pressure if the bearings are worn out of spec's.





    Good Luck!

    Where can I find online info on torque specifications an order for a 2001 Ford F150 oil pan?Its a 4.6 L V8?

    Oil pan bolts follow a tightening sequence:


    1)Tighten to 18 in-lbs (1.5 ft-lbs)


    2)Tighten to 15 ft-lbs


    3)Turn an additional 60 degrees





    Do step one for all bolts before moving to step two, and do step two to all bolts before doing step three.





    There is no specific order of tightening.Where can I find online info on torque specifications an order for a 2001 Ford F150 oil pan?Its a 4.6 L V8?
    Oddly enough the dealer will have all this information and will likely have the oil pan in stock. other wise you can get an oil pan from a wrecking yard, and the specs can still come from the dealer.Where can I find online info on torque specifications an order for a 2001 Ford F150 oil pan?Its a 4.6 L V8?

    Is the oil pump on a 2000 v6 firebird in the oil pan or out?

    The oil pump is on the lower area of the engine, inside the pan area. It has a pickup tube that goes to the sump area of the pan.Is the oil pump on a 2000 v6 firebird in the oil pan or out?
    The V-6 in your car car was designed by Buick way back when. The oil pump runs off of the front of the crankshaft ( a rotary design), and is part of the timing cover. The pick-up tube is bolted to the block inside the pan.

    Spend the little amount of money and get a new gasket. Look at it this way, new gasket now $ amount vs,, the oil you need to fill it back up, or a tow + time/$ to fix the leak again = more than the gasket will cost

    i would not risk it. the amount of labor to pull that pan back down to replace the gasket is just not worth it.

    Why does my husband put olive oil in the pan and then immediately take a paper towel and wipe it out?

    this drives me crazy, I want to know if I am wrong or is he wrongWhy does my husband put olive oil in the pan and then immediately take a paper towel and wipe it out?
    He is coating the pan prior to cooking and does not want the extra oil in it. Olive oil is however very pricey, so why doesn't he buy the olive oil spray. This way he can just spray the pan without wasting oil and a paper towel to boot....Why does my husband put olive oil in the pan and then immediately take a paper towel and wipe it out?
    He is seasoning it. Basically what that is, is a way of keeping the pan non stick such as a cast iron skillet. This is a perfectly normal thing to to and helps preserve the life of the pan.
    It perfectly greases the pan just enough. I do it too. Let something else drive you crazy.
    He's seasoning the pan. That's usually a good thing.
    Usually this is done on cast iron skillets only. Its supposed to help ';season'; the pan I guess. It helps the cast iron from becoming dried out.
    I just got a set of teflon pans and they recommend using a light coat of oil after you wash them.
    well lots of people use olive oil as a non stick material. so, by wiping it off he is just making sure that large amounts of it arent left over. It doesnt matter if any reminents are left over, because they will just cook away, but hes right, but that doesnt mean your wrong, its just his way of doing it.
