Toyota 12102-75021 Pan Sub-Assy, Oil

Apply a 1/8-inch wide bead of RTV sealant to the oil pan flange, ensuring the bead travels inboard of the bolt holes. Note that installation must be completed within 5 minutes of applying the sealant.

1. Remove the bolts and nuts that secure oil pan No. 2 (the smaller stamped steel pan) to the larger cast aluminum oil pan. 2. If oil pan No. 2 is stuck due to RTV sealant, tap it loose with a rubber-tipped mallet or carefully cut the sealant with a putty knife and hammer, ensuring not to damage the mating surfaces. 3. Remove the two oil pump pickup tube/strainer mounting nuts and the pickup/strainer assembly. 4. Remove the four bolts that attach the flywheel housing cover and then remove the cover. 5. Remove the 17 bolts and 2 nuts that secure the oil pan to the engine block, along with the 4 stud bolts. 6. Carefully pry the oil pan loose from the engine block, only prying in the small cutout areas along the side of the pan.
