    I just tightened the very loose bolts on my leaking oil pan, and the leaks
    are now much worse. Haynes says that to replace the gasket, the exhaust
    pipe must be disconnected, all mounts removed, and the engine on hoist from
    above to get access to some of the bolts. Is there any way to replace the
    gasket without this much work? No doubt the exhaust studs will break, the
    mount bolts will be seized, and I'd need to rent a portable lift. Anyone
    found another way to reseal the pan?

    Thks.
