Was changing the intake manifold gasket. and when I pulled the gasket. The metal spacer popped off the back and fell into the left side of the block along the side of the camshaft. I have tried magnets etc. I dropped the lol pan and can't find it. Does anyone have any advice or can help ? I have no clue what to do and am feeling pretty stupid right now.

 

It's a 2007 jku rubicon

 

Got it guys. Cranked the Motor by hand and it fell to the bottom where the pan sits

 

Glad you found it - that must have been a sickening moment when it disappeared...

 

You have no idea lol

 

I've done similar things like that before. I hate when you try not dropping something only to watch it disappear into something you know is gonna be hell getting out. Then of course, it is. >< The latest just happened about 3 weeks ago or so to me.
