I guess I've got a problem then.
I've got a customer's car (MGB) in the shop with the pan off, engine in
place (in situ, for the educated crowd) and the pan in the parts washer.
Now you tell me I can't do this!
What am I supposed to do now, pull the engine out to re-install the pan?
Inquiring minds NEED to know!
