Too bad the CEL doesn't seem to work. I'm not sure how hard it is to replace it, seems like it might be able to point...

Re: 95 civic w/ d15b7 stalling, fuel odor out of exhaust and low MPG's...suggestions?

I have a d15b7 also, so I can comment on the engine drain bolt location. It's behind the exhaust manifold cover, on the left side of the engine block facing from the front. It was easier for me to...

Re: DIY: Civic/del Sol/Integra distributor O ring replacement

Thanks, this helped me out as well. After looking at the photos I'm pretty sure I see the same oil leak happening in my car (stains on the tranny, also the crud on the distributor below the o-ring.)...

Hello,

93 Civic DX, d15b7 with 140k miles.
