If your pan is aluminum it is best to pull it and take it into a welding shop that can do aluminum welding (I believe it is called HELI-ARC done with a special rod and helium gas ) .If your pan is steel it should be taken off and have the crack BRAZE welded shut .If you have to do it on the vehicle that is possible too. another option strip the repair area surface very well down to a clean metal surface and use some fiberglass mat with resin and hardener over the crack and smooth it out .I have done this to very rusted pans that are not easily replaced and it works well .Anybody know and easy way to fix a craked oil pan?
how about you tell us make and model


the pan has to come off for repair or replacement liquid weld is ok for a temporary repair but for permanent needs welding or a new pan
Don't mess with liquid weld... despite the marketing spiel, it's still just a gummy liquid... and motor oil is both very hot, and under pressure... not a good combination for a hack job like liquid weld.





Unless you have real welding equipment, I'd just call a junkyard and see if they can find you a replacement oil pan. Probably less than $50, and you'll have the peace of mind that you won't have a blowout in the middle of nowhere that will easily cost you more than $50 in towing alone.
The oil will actually break down the liquid weld and then you'll have the same problem all over again.





I would suck it up and buy a used oil pan from a scrap yard, I wouldn't advise messing around with anything else
As a matter of fact I do. Buy a new one.
