90 integra oil pressure sending unit
Okay i am starting to get really mad. I have replaced my oil pan and gasket (3x!) and i can not stop my damn oil leak. It drips in sseveral places on the ground and i lose a quart every other day! I can not figure out why my car is leaking so bad. Where can you leak oil other then the oil pan (gasket) and oil filter? I heard the oil pressure sending unit but i was told my car doesn't have one but maybe it does!? I dont know but someone help me! Thanks, Jim

Clean your engine really well and then use an oil dye or not and drive it hard for a few miles and look to see where the oil originates from. Your oil pan itself might have a hole in it from road debree, or your main seal, or ... could be many things.

^^^^ Perfect way to do it. Go to NAPA - AutoZone etc tend to not carry it - and get UV trace dye for oil, and then go to AutoZone or Pep Boiz and get a UV light you can plug in the cig lighter from the ricer section. Don't need much trace dye, a tablespoon should do it. Dump it in, go drive for 5-10 mi., if that, and then shine that light all over the bottom of your engine; the oil will show up a bright neon yellowish brown from where it is leaking.
