replace 91 g20 oil pan

my only question - does the engine have to be removed to replace the oil pan?thanks

Nope, just jack up the front end, take out all the bolts and remove the old one, put liquid gasket on the new one and tighten it down to spec and you're all set.

To add to that, let the car set overnight so all of the oil is draining into the bottom of the pan so you get most of it out when you drain the oil before removing the oil pan. Scrape off the old gasket and make sure as it has been said to torque the bolts to spec. I would also recommend using the copper ATV sealant and let it set a few hours before operation, overnight would be great.
