I have a hairline crack in the oil pan on my 92 accord. It drips about 40 drips per minute, so it will need to be fixed.

Is there anything that I can do, or do I need to wrench on a new pan? If I need a new pan, will one from ebay work? Is there anything to know about buying the pan and installing it?

Thanks in advance.

 

Oil pans can easily found at a junk yard. The best course is to find one there. Your next option and one that would hold reasonably well will take about a day but it'll definitely hold.

Get some J.B weld, drop the pan and leave a drip pan to catch residual oil from the motor. JB weld the hair line crack and then reinstall the pan and let the car sit for it to cure.

After that you should be good to go. I did the same procedure when I broke part of my transmission casing.
