Screw in oil pan? ***?

[Nitro187]

Changed my oil, and found this on the magnet on the bolt of my oil pan... where could this be from? Doesn't look like anything that should be INSIDE the oil pan....

Re: Screw in oil pan?

Note....... I altered your subject line to achieve the same question



One of your drain pan or the windage tray screws has fallen out...frequent issue... use loctite when/if you re-install pan. Im sure that is a drain-pan screw. A screen above the pickup prevents ingestion of large bits...it can happen again.

Those are eggs. Let them sit in warm oil long enough and they grow up to be engines.

The only good news was that it is a screw that was in the pan to begin with!

I read this and swore that it must have been Dave that posted it. Are the two of you spending a lot of time together now?

If you can't beat 'em... try beating 'em harder.

Nitro must have a red Viper and that screw fell off of a yellow Viper.

Red Vipers eat what yellow Vipers lose. Makes them stronger.

Unfortunately, that can result in a bad case of oilpanstipation. I recommend...

My RED car ate a YELLOW car and now what do I do?
