    ok dude this is the steps for removing the oil pan step by step.
    works on 1985-1989 all makes of accord and 85-87 prelude si

    1-drop the flex pipe.
    2-drop the lower crossmember (only 7 14mm bolts)
    3-there is a pipe welded into the oil pan on the back of the crank case remove the banet holder on the connecting rubber hose (that is part of the extensive pcv valve system)
    4-remove the dust cover and lower engine mount (that connected to the lower crossmember) should be 4 12mm bolts and 2 10mm bolts.
    5- remove the (three trillon 10mm bolts holding the oil pan to the block -- lol)
    6-wedge a flat tip screwdriver between the oil pan and the block and pry the oil pan loose working all the way around the oil pan.
    7-after breaking the pan loose *simaltaniously* pull the oil pan down and at the same time while pulling it towards the driver side of the car.

    thats it man. but watch your eyes, cause when the pipe lets go it tends to fling excess oil in the pipe everywhere

    manual says to put silicone in 4 spots on the pan, the four corners where the hump in the pan are, thats it, then put the gasket on over the 4 spots.
