Reply to "Tapping sound at bottom of oil pan"

Thanks. That is allot of very useful info. I did notice that push lock nut on the shaft, and wondered if it went up or down, I did decide it went up, but don't remember if it was that way originally. The shaft is not twisted.

Next, I am going to try something very unconventional. With the pan supported underneath, I am going to attempt to hammer the bottom of the pan back out by placing a steel pipe in selected locations. I am convinced I don't have the clearance you speak of. If successful, I am going to re-assemble and re-start. If that doesn't work, I'll cut the braces.
