Thanks for all the great input, but I'm running up against the clock. I have to finish putting up a fence in the back yard for the dogs before we go camping next week. I've got two days to finish it and I've got 20 more panels and a gate to put up.

I think the problem is the gasket is too thin. Too bad I threw out the old one. It shouldn't take all these gyrations to get this to work.

FYI: I bought the filter and gasket from Fastlane.

There is an MB dealer a few mile away from our new house. I'm thinking of taking it in there and having them put the pan on. It can be ready for me when I get back a week later.

I REALLY, REALLY HATE to give. My wife too, was amazed that I was looking at have someone else do this. I never have (pay) anyone to do something for me that I can do myself. He!!, I'm even going to build my own plane! (and I'm going to put an oil-burner in it!)
