Anybody replace an oil pan?
MY Civic's oil pan is going to be replaced soon, because its rusting on the outside and I'm not going to wait for it to bust a hole. The question I have is wether or not the oil pan has a gasket or not. I've heard that it doesnt and that it requires "honda-bond" to be applied to edges of it before you remount it?
Can anybody comment on this?

The bolts/nuts don't take a lot of pressure to seat. Make sure you don't over-torque them or the gasket won't seal properly.
