Re: 3.9l Engine Oil Leak

Was there even actually a gasket on there originally? Many engines now just use RTV to seal the pan to the engine. I once put a gasket on an engine that originally just used RTV and it leaked WORSE with the gasket. After talking to others who experienced the same I pulled the pan again, removed the gasket and just RTVed the pan to the engine and it didn't leak from the pan any more.
