| Update pics My buddy came up with a good idea to tie fishing string around the oil pump bolt so in the case it fell we can pull it out and thats exactly what happen lol | |

| yeah I take extra caution when removing that bolt I stuff paper towels in the oil pan first than loosen the bolt with a wrench. Than I use two hands and remove it the remainder of the way | |

| I have a bent 10mm wrench for that pickup bolt. I have dropped them before but a magnet gets it pretty easy since the oil pan is aluminum. Looking good | |
