Message	On my motor I was able to loosen the gusset and get the pan out. I didn't want to make yet another run to the store for another gasket, so I wanted to make it work. I just tried the same technique on a customer motor and could not get the gusset loose, so I had to pull the oil tree. It ended up being necessary though, as one of the check valves in the block had come apart. -Dan BlackholeZ VTC Solenoid Caps Installation Procedure "Capitalization is the difference between helping your Uncle Jack off a horse, and helping your uncle jack off a horse."
