Need help! Busted oil pan!

[ejnight]

This reminds me, I need to throw my skidplate on!

Yes, get it on. It does not take much of a hit for you to be down.

Nice. That pan is totally fucked. Hell of a deal for Jay's pan!

[HarukoE30]

^ Uh Game over, I have a an oil pan if you want it. $40 + whatever shipping would be if you can't find one local. Let me know!

[Plan:B]

Enjoy.

But you can't clean it 100% unless the pan is off the car.

He mentioned cleaning the damaged spot, putting a patch over it and welding around the patch.

Absolutely not. Not a good weld at least. You have to have it 100% free of any contamination before you weld, or it won't take.

This may sound a little off. My friend works at a shop and told me he could weld up my pan wile on the car. Can this be done?

BTW, I have a lead on a skid plate!

I've got a pan for you, $80?

[e30josh]

buy a used pan, and a new skidplate.

[e30austin]

Skid plate homie.

[ttrousdell]

JB weld it if the crack is not wide. Ive never been a fan of half ass fixes on my car but the stuff works well until you get a good pan.

[BigBillions]

how did you crack it. i have one but im in portland and not for free

[Plan:B]

I cracked my oil pan on my 88 325i tonight. I am hoping someone near Renton Wa has a extra oil pan that I have can have or cheap.
