But doesn't really fit the pan. What is a fix for this? should I order another one and hope its different? or just cut it off? 85 2.3 Woods Trooper (bye bye 1.9) 89 2.6 RS (really short)x2 94 Amigo 86 Troopers x2 Its really an addiction Re: Oil pan gasket install [Re: TrooperII] #845708 11/07/07 02:37 AM Joined: Sep 2003 Posts: 1,214 J JLEMOND Body Damage is Cool THERE IS NO OIL PAN GASKET ON THE 2.6 ENG UNLESS IT IS 2WD , FOR THE 4WD ENGS THE LOWER PAN (CRANKCASE IS SEALED TO THE BLOCK WITH A GOOD QUALITY RTV SEALER , YOU DO HAVE END SEALS , THAT MUST BE INSTALLED IN THE REAR MAIN SEAL CAP AND ONE ON THE FRT SEAL RETAINER , INSTALLED CORRECTLY THEY WILL NOT LEAK, DONT EVEN TRY AND USE A PAN GASKET , OR YOU WILL HAVE TO DO IT OVER JERRY Re: Oil pan gasket install [Re: JLEMOND] #845709 11/07/07 06:12 AM Joined: Sep 2003 Posts: 91 Ohio T TrooperII OP Getting the Wheeling Fever hey jerry thanks for the info. it seem like there was a gasket on the engine when I took it off.
