How do you change the oil pan gasket on a 1991 honda civic wagon?

If the exhaust sits under the oil pan, you would first have to take that off from the headers, in front of the engine, and pull it down( or just take it off completely). Then you would have to drain out all of the oil by unbolting the, usually, 14 mm bolt that's on the bottom of oil pan. Then, you would unbolt the 10 mm bolts that hold the oil pan in place. Theres usually 10+ of those, not sure on the amount though. After that you would remove the gaskey from the oil pan and thoroughly cleanse the cut out of where the gasket is on the oil pan. After that place the new gasket and assemble the exact way that you disassembled.


Hope that helps.
