Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the Dorman 264-529 oil pan, ensure the mounting surface is clean and free of old gasket material. This oil pan does not include a gasket or seal, so a compatible gasket must be sourced separately. Tighten the mounting bolts evenly to the manufacturer’s torque specifications to avoid warping. The included drain plug should be checked for proper sealing to prevent leaks. Since this pan does not include a pickup or crankshaft wiper, verify compatibility with your engine’s internal components before installation.
