Oil filter gasket?

The oil filter gasket is a rubber ring that is usually bonded to the oil filter. If the oil filter has been removed and has no gasket, then it has become stuck to the engine block. Remove the gasket from the block before installing a new oil filter with it's own new gasket. Be sure to spread a little clean engine oil on the rubber gasket before installation to help seal and prevent sticking to the block. Do not overtighten the filter, turn the filter until the gasket contacts the block and then tighten 1/4 turn more. If the gasket leaks, tighten just enough to stop the leak.


1995 suburban 350 4x4 oil is leaking were the oil pump mounts to the motor?

The oil pump is located inside the oil pan. Are you saying you have an oil pan gasket leak? I have a 97 Tahoe with the 350 and I can drop the oil pan without having to lift the engine. I am not sure if you can or not. If you can you can install a new oil pan gasket yourself......it takes time and remember what you have to unbolt so you can bolt it back up when you are done.


Can pure antifreeze leak from a cylinder head without oil traces in it and can antifreeze leak from an intake gasket?

I have a 98 Malibu and I know from experience that antifreeze can leak from the intake gasket. It cost me $400 to fix it. At first we thought it was tranny fluid because it was pink, not that! I have Dexcool in my car and that is what was leaking from the intake. Common problem for the 3800 II; GMs` later 3800s have ALUMINUM intakes; I guess they found the problem, yet they didn`t choose to fix the other cars.....bastards...


Bad oil leak in ford escape 2005 its coming from the oil filter gasket housing is that hard to fix and is it expensive to fix?

This may or may not be the solution for you, but check this out for starters. Some oil filter gaskets are not well bonded to the filter, and as a result, when you remove an old filter, sometimes the old gasket will stick to the engine. If you don't notice, and install a new filter while the old gasket is still stuck there, the new filter will not seal properly and you will have a serious leak. If this turns out to be the case for you, simply remove the old gasket, inspect, and reinstall the new filter with its own gasket. If the filter's gasket looks damaged, or deformed in any way, you're best off buying and installing a new filter. (My personal opinion and advice: don't waste your money on cheapie filters, they're not worth it. Stick with a brand name you trust)
