you would cry if you saw my m50 oil pan, just replaced it too, all scratched up, few fins broken off, haha.
Jess - are you using a crank scraper on your setup? __________________ -Jeff

Jess - are you using a crank scraper on your setup? | Lol, my original pan had a few hairline cracks and was leaking. Picked this one up for 75 bucks a while back. No cracks, just a lil dirty. What's a crank scraper? | | | | | 04-22-2009, 05:02 AM | #5 | | Moderator Join Date: Dec 2006 Location: SoCal318ti Posts: 1,574 |

Holy crap, my garage is starting to look like yours! all the way down to the pneumatic garage stool... Which, by the way, shouldn't have an oil pan on the leather seat...

My Aunt gave it to me for Christmas a couple years ago. The garage is a disaster right now. I need to spend an afternoon putting things back in order.I'm sure yours is much cleaner. I'm scratching my head now, wondering what the heck is a crank scraper is   | | | | | 04-22-2009, 05:13 AM | #8 | | Senior Member Join Date: Jul 2007 Location: norcal - 94590 Posts: 3,186 |
http://www.crank-scrapers.com/What%2...k-scraper.html Oh, and trust me, my garage is bad now... To make it worse it's just a one car garage that hasn't had a car in it since 2003... __________________ James 95 active w/leather interior and sport interior conversion, Vaders, full M-Tech exterior conversion.

Cool thanks for the link James. IIRC, my engine does have an integrated baffle/crank scraper. It looks like an OEM part. | | | | | 04-22-2009, 09:03 PM | #11 | | Senior Member Join Date: Sep 2007 Location: asdfasdf Posts: 10,002 |
you sure do like polishing stuff, I don't think anyone's going to have a shinier engine than you once you're done  | | | | | 04-22-2009, 09:25 PM | #12 | | Senior Member Join Date: Nov 2007 Location: Rocky Hill, CT Posts: 1,065 |
Jess, this engine is going to look AMAZING. I'm jealous, I wish I had the time to clean up my motor like this and have it hang on the stand for a while. I'd LOVE to do it. I tried to get dad to before we dropped the diesel into his truck, but he said f-it, it's not a show truck (which is very true). I vote this one turns to a coffee table, and you get a new dirty one for the car __________________
