Re: replacing oil and trans pan
On my '96 3.8L, you need to remove the "Y" pipe before you can remove the oil pan.
The "Y" pipe is both catalytic converters and pipes from the exhaust manifolds back to just in front of the flex pipe....in front of the muffler......all 1 assembly.
For the tranny pan.....installing the drain plug is a good idea, however, you want to be certain that you install the drain plug in such a position that it will not interfere with any internals of the transmission.
There are a number of locations on the pan that are very close to internal parts of the transmission.
