So in my b16 I have an oil leak. it looks as if it is coming from the oil pan, but i am not sure its all on one side... the drivers side. But i was thinking maybe my cam seals or crank seal.. i just replaced the crank seal tho..

Any ideas guys?? what other seals could be doing it?

you can try replacing the oil pan gasket and see if that helps. But if its still leaking in the same spot i would think it would be either the cam seals or the crank seal. You can inspect the cam seals by taking the timing belt cover off and just looking to see if there is oil leaking from the cam seals.

It could also be coming from the valve cover.

Clean the area where you think the oil is coming from and check it out after a drive. That way you will know where the leak is from before you start pulling stuff apart.

i replaced valve cover gasket and o rings. still had a leak, then replaced the vtec solenoid and cam seals and that fixed it on my ek.

well the thing is... there is none on the head anywhere, its all on the drivers (timing belt) side of the motor and it like drips onto the axle and fukking gets flung around..... like on the suspension n ****

TTT

I need help... I cant tell where this ****in oil is coming from!

Its all over on the drivers side of the oil pan...

I have checked these
-Cam seals
-Oil pan & gasket
-Torqued all the bolts to spec as well in order
-Crank Seal

The only thing I can think of anymore is maybe the seal on the Oil Pump...

Is there any way to tell or check if the seals bad without tearing apart all the ****.
