Hi..Does anyone know where the oil pickup is in the oil pan? I have a 99 Honda Civic SE.
I have a dent on my oil pan and I'm not sure if I should change it. If it doesn't effect the oil pick up then I'm not going to change it but I need to know where the oil pickup is located in the oil pan

 

Depends on where the dent is at, and I dont remember honda making a civic se... But pictures would help

 

It's a civic ex special edition(SE). The dent is in front (by the radiator) on the side of the oil pan (looks like punched in), on the driver's side. Is it serious? I wish I had a camera so I can show.

 

It is very serioues! Recommend to change it A.S.A.P! Thats the heart of the power plant to survive!!!! ROFL

 

WTF..why r u talking about power plant a**hole? If you don't have any thing useful to add then why the F*ck r u replying.

dumbass

its probally a good idea to change it if the dent is deep if not dont worry I have a dented pan and my oil pressure is always good so I guess it just depends on the pan and where the dent is.

 

I just did the same thing. When I bought the new pan the guy threw in the oil pump pickup.

I've seen a few Civic and Accord SE's. They're usually a dealer badge package and sometimes they throw in an upgraded stereo or something like that.

 

he is right
and it can be very serious
because a dent may damage the oil pickup and cause for not sucking up oil to ur motor
I recommand u change it asap.

my friend had the same problem and just ignore the oil pickup part.
end up 2 of his rod bearings toasted.

 

Do you know where the oil pickup is located in the oil pan?? Is it in the back or the front of the oil pan?

 

its on the deep end bolted to the crank girdle (where the mains are cast in 1 pieace)

you should be fine

Hey..Can you circle on that picture where the oil pickup/pump is located. I'm not really familiar with engine's internal parts.
