Acura Legend Oil Pan
The Acura Legend Oil Pan is the engine's reservoir and holds important engine lubricant pooled underneath the block. Most model years are based on a wet sump layout, in which the Oil Pan is located low beneath the crankcase to collect the returning oil and feed it back to the pump via a pickup tube. Because of the need to change the pan size to ensure it fits beneath the rotating assembly, every Acura branded Legend has its engine mounted slightly higher, a small trade-off that ensures the pan is in a position to provide a steady bath of lubricant during everyday driving. Hard cornering causes the sloshing of oil, but baffles molded into the stamped steel Oil Pan keep it from starving by holding the oil around the pickup. For racing applications, some versions have been modified to use a dry sump that uses an external oil tank and oil scavenge pumps to supply the oil instead of using the stock Legend Oil Pan. Despite that alternative, the good old wet sump Acura Oil Pan remains simpler, lighter, and easier to service with both sump and drain plug in one piece. Regular gasket sealing prevents leaks, allowing Acura drivers to maintain the solid reputation the Legend enjoys.

Acura Legend Oil Pan Parts Questions & Experts Answers
- Q: How to remove and install an Oil Pan on an Acura Legend?A:To remove the oil pan, first disconnect the negative cable from the battery, block the rear wheels, set the parking brake, and securely raise the front of the vehicle on jackstands. Next, remove the lower splash shields, drain the engine oil, and take off the oil filter. Then, remove the center Engine Mount and unbolt the longitudinal crossmember by taking out the bolts from its ends. Detach the exhaust pipe from the manifolds and remove the lower bellhousing cover if equipped. After that, remove the bolts around the perimeter of the oil pan and lower it; if it is stuck, use a soft-face hammer to break it loose without damaging the mating surfaces. For installation, use a scraper to eliminate all old sealant from the block and oil pan, ensuring not to gouge the aluminum block, and clean the mating surfaces with lacquer thinner or acetone. Check that the threaded bolt holes in the block are clean and inspect the oil pan flange for distortion, flattening it if necessary. Inspect the oil pump pick-up screen assembly for damage and install it with a new O-ring if it was removed, tightening the fasteners to the specified torque. Position a new gasket on the oil pan, carefully place the oil pan on the engine block, and install the bolts, tightening them from the center out in three steps. Finally, complete the installation in reverse order, adding oil and a new oil filter, then run the engine to check for oil pressure and leaks.
