Need to know how to replace the oil filter housing gasket. I have been told that coolant will leak into the oil pan when doing this. Is this a true fact? Thanks.

No, it wont leak into the oil. The position of the housing causes any coolant leaked to go straight to the ground. It wont run uphill.

I guess I'm not computer savvy enough to find it. I scrolled up as you said and all I could find is answers to other members problems. Hope my wife can help me with this. Thanks for all your help.
