Featured Replies

I have an 83 280zx N/A and Im trying to replace the oil pan gasket. I removed all the bolts and the brackets connecting the bell housing to the block. tried to pry off the oil pan with a flat head but it wont come off. Its like its glued or something any ideas?

patience and a putty knife. Work slow. Don't bend the lip on the pan. Yes, it is glued.
