You're welcome.

I hope it's not the oil pump, but if it is you'll likely have to pull the engine to change the oil pump. The oil pump is actually behind the oil pan in a couple of areas, so there's no way to swap the oil pump without removing the oil pan. There's almost no room to pull the oil pan off unless you pull the engine. It actually can be done without pulling the engine, but only with great difficulty. Most that have tried have come to the conclusion it would have been easier to pull the engine. Be sure to use the TSRMs when doing this work.

NB: Please consider posting any help requests in a new thread instead of asking me for help privately. About 99.9+% of the time, private help requests end up covering great information that could be very valuable to other forum members. If you have a good reason for needing the help request to be private, I'll consider it. If not, then why not give everyone else the opportunity to pitch in too, and/or learn from the information? Remember, there's no such thing as a dumb question. We're all here to help within this family of Supra owners.
