Dorman Oil Pans
Auto parts manufacturer Dorman produces quality oil pans that fit in most domestic and foreign automobiles. An oil pan primarily performs the messy task of storing fluids underneath the crankshaft.
Functions of Dorman Oil Pans
Dorman's oil pans perform several additional tasks while connected to crankcases. The main purpose of this piece of forged metal is the collection of vital fluid before, during and after operation. This fluid gathers at the base after a vehicle is stopped and runs back through after ignition.
In addition, the Dorman line of oil pans have various tools needed to monitor fluid levels. These products include level indicators for quick review without removal of the oil pan. Some products feature sensor holes needed to monitor operating temperature. Fluid cooling tools are added to products designed for high-performance vehicles and heavy-duty trucks.
Dorman also allows fluid drainage and removal without removing their products from crankcases. The use of a drain plug allows a mechanic to deal with excess engine fluids during maintenance checks. These plugs feature tight seals that prevent leakage on top of other parts.
