I have a major oil leak. I have to put 2 quarts in every 3 days. I have my motor built so i know it burns oil but around the oil pan where it bolts up at theres orange glue or some kind of rubber stuff. he told me it seals itself better when you use that. I dont know I need to take the oil pan off and get that **** off there. How hard is it to remove the oil pan? is there a gasket that goes around the oil pan? Im tired of adding 5 quarts every week which is bs cuz its like im changing my oil every week, and its starting to put a dent in my pocket. so please help yall! Thanks

 

You shouldn't be burning oil if its built. Are you leaving a puddle of oil on the ground?

There is no gasket, only the bolts you see on the bottom, 2 that go into the transaxle, and 1 from the intercooler cooler pump bracket and 1 from the ac compressor iirc. Reseal it with black RTV.

 

there is no oil pan gasket, you use rtv silicone (the orange stuff) to seal the pan to block.

when the pan is sealed this way it usualy doesnt leak. are you sure the oil isnt comming from up higher???

 

it comes out where the oil pan goes up where it bolts on. there is 3 bolts where the place its leaking from which im think it wasnt sealed right or good enough
