Oil pan replacement
My oil pan has been (repaired?) by a crooked mechanic who was supposed to replace it with a new or used one. He only welded it over and charged me for a new one.
I'm buying it myself this time and having a friend put it in for me. is there anything I need to know before having him do this work himself?

Ensure that there is no residual old gasket in place is the only thing you need to know and buy the original gel gasket from your manufacturer's.
Biggest advice i can think of is to make sure ALL of the old gasket material is removed before installing new pan to keep it from leaking when you install new gasket a thin coat of Form-A-Gasket or similar type silicone on new gasket sure helps out hope this helps
