leak in the oil pan...

i have a very small oil leak seeping through the gasket in my oil pan. Would buying something like and STP Stop Leak, or some other product along those lines help stop the leak? This leak is very small, i have to add a quart about every month or two so it's really not bad. but would one of these products work or would it be a waste of my couple dollars?

it is best to replace.

hey i myself had this same problem very common in all ford cars to have that leaky oilpan gasket, particularly the 93s. anyway its kinda costly to get it replaced because you have to take off part of the exhaust includding the cat section in order to get the pan out once you get it disconnected..... its a giant pain... i spent a day and a half changing mine.. and the biggest trick of all is getting the new gasket to seal properly because they don't make a rubber gasket for those its actually a jelly that goes around the edges.... hence its hard to make it seal..... good luck to you!
