Check online for a free workshop manual. Given the age there must be a free one out there somewhere. Go to the owners club pages. Its quite likely you may have to drop the pipes.

SOURCE: Heat questions

The shock would get just as hot without the exhaust being next to it. The amount of heat generated by the thousands of up/down cycles a shock goes through, especially at racing speeds, is higher than the heat transferred from the pipe being next to it.

Drain plug will be a 17 mm. Can be on the side but usually on the bottom. If pipes are not aftermarket they should'nt be in the way. If you can't get to it w/a socket then use a combination wrench. Don't overmuscle when reinstalling cause bolt is steel but engine is aluminum....Caution is the word ! Oh yea and pick up an owners manual at your dealer..invaluable...Good Luck to you friend...Tim

Because the timing is off. If the timing is too advanced, or too retarded, it will make your exhaust pipe cherry red.

I bought a T/3 T4 T3 turbo charger 2.25" 4 bolt exhaust .48at turbo Charger 42ar oil cooled only for an 04 maxima and I'm wondering what accessories am I gonna need piping and intercooler wise and turbo...

Turbo manifold, blow off valve, waste gate, intercooler, turbo timer, piggyback or standalone ECU, most likely an all new exhaust system, new intake, filter. An oil cooler may be needed, as those turbo chargers are most likely cooled and lubricated by the oil in the engine, needing to be piped through the turbo itself.

Do I need to pull my motor in my 2001 Dodge durango to replace the oil pan gasket?

  • Jack up the front of the Dodge Durango, and install a jack stand. Block the rear wheels.
  • Remove the oil plug and let the oil drain into a pan, being sure to remove as much of the old oil as possible.
  • Loosen the bolts holding the oil pan with a socket wrench, and remove the bolts with your fingers. Remove the oil filter, starter motor, cooler lines, oil level sensor, heated oxygen sensor connector and exhaust y-pipe, and then take off the oil pan.
  • Scrape off the old gasket with a thin putty knife, being very careful not to scrape the surface. Be sure all of the old gasket is removed, then wipe the surface with solvent. Spread a bit of oil on the surface to promote adhesion, and apply the new gasket.
  • Replace the oil pan, exhaust y-pipe, heated oxygen sensor connector, oil level sensor, cooler lines and starter motor, and install a new oil filter.
  • Raise the vehicle slightly with the jack and slide out the jack stand before lowering the vehicle and removing the jacks.
  • Fill the engine with the appropriate amount of oil. Check the level with the dipstick to be sure you have the right amount.
Good luck and hope this helps.

Oil in water resovour vw 2002 passat

This is probably a head gasket problem and not an oil cooler problem.

The oil cooler is fairly easy to test.

Remove the cooler from the engine but do not disconnect cooling lines and then pressurize the cooling system. You can use a radiator test tool to put pressure on the cooling system and look for leaks. If it leaks, replace it.

You may also be able to bypass the oil cooler altogether if it leaks.

The head gasket is another story.

Get a 1/4" pipe to spark plug fitting and put a male air coupling fitting in it.

Then you can charge the cylinders with air from your compressor.

Make sure each cylinder that you test is at top dead center so that the valves are closed.

If air bubbles into your coolant, you found your problem.

If air leaks out your intake you have a bad intake valve

If air leaks out your exhaust you have a bad exhaust valve etc.
