How hard was it to get the oil pan off. I am having the same issue on the same type car in the same place. I have all the bolts out of the pan, including the ones that hold the compressor bracket on, and I can't get the oil pan to budge. Been trying to pry it off with a putty knife, screw driver, etc and that sucker is one there! I also noticed, when taking the bolts out of the pan, that they were hand tight at best. Barely had to put any torque on the ratchet to loosen them. Did you notice that?
