I Need Your Help Fast!!! I just got done puting in my new cam, i can get the oil pan to drop 1/2 so i can get to the bolt on the oil pump so i can put my new one in. am i forgeting somthing? i losend the bolts on the oil pan.
Did you take off the plastic covers where the bell housing meets the block, there might be a bolt hiding back there. And don't forget the long bolts that are near the back of the oil pan on the bottom.
I had this same problem about a week or so ago. They kept asking me if i forgot any bolts, and i said no no no. It was a bolt holding holding it in. The one next to the oil filter. The gasket will not hold it in place, it should fall if you loosened all the bolts. check it again.

I did it with the car on jack stands. No problem with the K member here. You just need to drop it enough to get at the pickup bolt. I wrapped a wire around the base of the pickup bolt to make sure I didn't drop it.
