What is the average cost to replace an oil pan for a 1992 Buick Skylark with a 3.3 liter engine? Also, how difficult is it to replace the oil pan, i.e, what is the procedure? Is it as simple as jacking the car up and removing the pan without lifting the engine? Thanks

This job is far from simple. It calls for 2.2 hours of labor and the pan goes for about $200. Not only does the engine have to be lifted but the sub from has to be lowered. The A/C has to be evacuated and the compressor removed.
