3.0 liter oil pan gasket
hi, i have a significant leak where i lose about 1 quart of oil in a 20 mile drive. the truck is a 1992 model that has been well serviced, with 200k miles. when it is parked, there is a descent plate sized pile under the engine, but losing a quart over 20 miles makes me believe it is pouring out more when running. there are signs of oil leaking on the engine, just cant pinpoint where i think this major leak is. i do see where the oil pan gasket has slippped out in front and oil leaking above it too, maybe front seal. question is, do i have to remove the engine to replace the oil pan gasket or can i cheat it in. if it can be cheated in, can somebody help me know how to do that, or point me to a link if it has been discussed on this forum before. Thanks!
