you could get by with some gasket maker goo. Should be available at all parts stores. Would get you back on the road asap

I might have to do that. I'm going to start walking towards my car it'll probably take a few hours

Do you have a replacement pan already?

I love the look on Green Hat's face. WTF is that greasy piece of shit doing ruining my Sunday Taco Belltime?

Young people these days.

Seriously man, good luck though. I would hate to know I had to change that damn pan on the side of the road.

Have you verified the oil pump is still intact ?

Posting updates on r3v regularly should help your cause, best of luck.

I think the oil pump is good

Honestly I wouldn't know what to do in the same situation. Moral of the story is never go on a e30 road trip without tools, and disaster plans. GL OP! R3v help this man!

Yes. there are lots of lessons to be learnt here for me

OP, is that you in the green hat? You look older than you sound.

No. I'm 22. Been sleeping in a car since I broke down.

Im currently sitting in taco bell with an oil pan on the table and my phone plugged into the wall to keep it from dying . I am separated from my car and I'm trying to find a way back to it. I feel pretty damn stranded right now, and it's drizzling

Understandable man, I would hate to be in this position. Although this story has inspired me to invest in AAA. I hope you get help soon, I would help if I didn't live in Seattle.

Good luck.
