No, this is not advised. The pan can be damaged in this process. It is better to lift the car by the frame.

New motorcycle jack it won't lift with a load but will lift without a load?

First check the bleed off valve, the thing you turn to let the jack down. If it is not tight , the oil will by pass under pressure and the jack will not lift. If that is not the problem then check toe oil in the jack. if the oil is low it may not lift a load, Could be an air bubble also. if you can't find anything else wrong try turning the jack upside down.

Do you have to lift the motor to change 1989 f350 with 351 winsor....oil pan gasket?

Remove the two motor mount bolts to the frame, place a wood block under the harmonic damper with a jack under it and jack the engien up. Be careful not to raise the engine to much or you can damage the hoses and other stuff running down the fire wall. Take all the oil pan bolts off, now remove the oil pickup and oil pump with the oil pan resting on the frame. you will not be able to get the oil pan out from under the engine until you remove the oil pump and oil pickup. Hope that helps

How do you replace the timing belt on a 1994 Mazda Protege?

to keep the timing gears im place, each gear will have a dot or arrow, pay attention to that, get the belt lined up, then used a pair of vice grips on the belt to hold it all in place You stick a jack under the oil pan but with a wood on it so you don't dent the oil pan. If the jack doesn't fit, you will have to use two jacks. One is for lifting the car enough to get the second jack under it. You then lift the engine from the oil pan just enough for the weight to be on the jack instead of the engine mounts and not actually lift up the engine. You then remove the upper right engine mount. Then, you take off the timing belt cover and a bunch of other crap that you should buy a Haynes or Chilton manual for.
