Slant Six Oil light coming on — need a new pump?

...and lordy, I ain't tryin to tell you "my way or the highway". People have done this a lot with the engine in the car. But here's my main reasons. First, I ain't a young man anymore. I find it difficult lying on my back under a car anymore. Well......maybe more difficult getting out and back up. lol But there are a couple of things. First, the slant 6 has a rear main seal retainer similar to a big block. The lower half is aluminum and you have to remove it to access the lower half of the rear main seal. Also, the oil pan has a four piece gasket. Two cork side pieces and two rubber end pieces. It's just SO much easier "for me" to get that thing out and on the stand. And I always pull the transmission too, because it's just too much trouble "for me" to crap around with bellhousing bolts in such tight quarters. I'll put it like this. I'm 59 and my wife is 66. The last time we pulled one was about three years ago when we swapped in the 225. We had the 170 and transmission out in less than an hour with hand tools. Now I am a retired mechanic, so I did it for a living for a long time. But the rear seal retainer and the four piece oil pan gasket are deal breakers for me now, because it's just too much trouble fumbling around with on my back under the car. You may have better success with it, though.
