Hey I got an engine from Tiger Japanese Auto parts..

I bought a f22b DOHC and tranny both for 650 and only 175 shipping all the way to Mississippi... I put it in a 94 accord

They forgot to put on the flex plate, I called them and they sent it to me with no problem.

The engine was not as new as I was hoping for but it was clean and runs very well.

Maybe I got lucky,, But I am very happy with it

Just wondering,,
Are you not able to fix the oil leak and codes?? Or is the engine just shot?
Oil leaks and codes are a lot cheaper and easier to fix then putting a new motor in.

There are PDF files on the web for the car that show detail info on your car and how to fix the codes..
