Pans plural? Just verifying.

Upper and lower

Clean your transmission connectors, under the intakes, while you're in there. And while you have them apart, fix that heater hose in the bottom of the intake; it's leaking onto those connectors. Both will be easier to access if you remove the starter. You can clean it while it's out; it's nasty anyway.

The '94 has only one pan. The '95-'97 have two sections and thus two seals.

Do you mean the 3FE? All 1FZ have an upper aluminum and lower steel pan.

Yes. Brainfart.

Just pull the engine and replace the rear main seal while you’re in there

I just pulled the pans today because of a big rear arch oil leak. It's a huge, dirty job. I can't imagine how difficult this job would be on a rusty truck.

Parts:

9672119010oil dipstick o ring
9043012031oil pan drain plug gasket

Don't forget to do the...
Head gasket
Pistons & rings
Main bearings
Rod bearings
Muffler bearings
And of course
Dingell arms (the reciprocating ones)

I have just the lower pan off my 94 right now to re-do the seal while drained for change. Just did the tranny pan but NCIH I'm touching the upper oil pan. I know mine...

I have some junk in my strainer. Is there any protocol for cleaning these other than removing the crud from the surface? Thank you.
