#7512, "Freaking oil pan"


          

Why am I finding it impossible to get this back in place? It wont slide past my oil pickup tube connecter and cv joint. I got it off without removing these two things with little trouble...

I turned my whole block upside down while it was on the stand to get the pan on, and I believe my dipstick was still on (I had to take it off, but that was for another reason IIRC).

And one broken bolt later, I remember that my engine is off one of its mounts, causing it to tilt down at one angle...hence my inability to squeeze the oil pan in between the pickup tube and cv joint.

Ignore my last post. You have to take the cv joint off of its mount, and move it out of the way.
