Changing out a manifold gasket can be a difficult job for a novice. However, that is not to say that a mechanically-inclined novice cannot do it. A good repair manual with step-by-step procedures, such as Hayne's or Chilton's, is a valuable assett for any "novice" mechanic. After removing the cylinder head, it might be wise to have it examined for warpage at a machine shop - especially if the gasket blew due to overheating - and have it resurfaced. Get a valve job done on it while it is there.

To change the oil pan gasket on a 1999 Mazda Protege DX, remove the bolts holding it to the bottom of the motor. Take the old gasket off and clean the area where the gasket sits with a gasket cleaner. Place a gasket sealer on the outside lip, then put in the new gasket. Carefully replace the pan and tighten the bolts, being careful not to let the gasket overlap itself.
