hi

i have an 850 volvo 1995

and drove over a dip in the road, and now i have (it seems) a hole in my oil pan

i saw i could be jbwelded, although maybe just remove the pan, take it to a welder to patch?

either way, its kinda out of my league, so if anyone had any tips, help they could offer, or ideas
i would appreciate it immensely

thanks!

You should start by going to a junk yard and see if you can remove one with the right tools, then stop at an autoparts store (i.e Oreily, atozone, karquest, mapa, etc) and get a gasket and perhaps some gasket glue, then drain all the oil overnight and replace yours. Good Luck.
