How Do You Replace The Oil Pan On A 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee?
Your Jeep Grand Cherokee is equipped with an oil pan the holds the required amount of oil to cool and lubricate your engine parts. The oil pan is under your vehicle at the bottom of the engine block so that the oil can drain down to the pan and be distributed to the engine by an oil pump located near the oil pan. Replacing the oil pan is an easy task and will take about an hour. Allow the engine to cool down completely. Place the oil drain pan under the drain plug at the base of the oil pan. Remove the drain plug, turning your 3/4-inch wrench counterclockwise. Allow all the oil to drain into the drain pan and move the pan out from under the Jeep. Turn each oil pan bolt counterclockwise, using your socket, wrench and extension, and remove all bolts while supporting the oil pan with your hand. Remove the old oil pan and use your gasket scraper to remove the remaining gasket material Position the new gasket on top of the new oil pan, lining it up with the bolt holes. Position the oil pan
