Thank goodness for that..........
You need to suspend the engine and drop the crossmember to swap out the oil pan gasket......
Can you take pics of the syrup when you drain it......
After you have checked everything over............
- You will need to prime the oil pump. Remove the oil filter......pour some oil down it........... and turn the engine backwards a couple of times.
- PUll the DME relay. Crank it until you can see oil pressure on the guage.
A quart of ATF with the next oil change would be a good thing as well..........
P.S This thing is going to start springing a number of oil leaks. Watch that water pump as well it will probably go......
