So today I attempted to do the oil pan o-ring replacement. So eight hours later, I finally was able to get the oil pan off. I purched the o-rings form IPD, and the kit included about eight different rings. But when I looked at the pan there are only two that I can see that have to be replaced. Am i missing some I cant see. and where do they go. Oh yeah its a 96 850 turbo.
Any help please.

 

Why eight hours?

They send a generic kit that would work on all cars.
You should also replace the oil pickup tube o-ring as well.

 

Thanks, I did replace that one also, eight hours because Im probably slow. But I found another problem. I put everything back together and used the same rectangular oil ring on the oil cooler thermostat. So when I started the car. oil just pored out of the oil cooler thermostat, I believe that is what is called. It attaches to the right side of the pan, It can be reached with the right front tire off. So immediately turned it off and rolled it back into the garage. So I ordered a new o-ring from FCP Groton. But my question, can I replace the o-ring on the oil cooler without draining all the oil again.

 

Yes you can usually back the cooler back some and replace the ring.
You will loose some oil but not a ton of it.
