sounds like u need a new valve cover gasket set from honda. you dont need to pull the head. remove the valve cover and replace the valve cover gasket and the circular spark plug gaskets. cheap fix.

buy some hondabond or high temp sealant and a valve cover gasket set from honda. part 16 http://www.hondapartscheap.com/south...t=0&quantity=0

take off your valve cover. remove the old gaskets including the rings around the spark plug holes. remove the spark plugs and clean them off. affix your new valve cover gasket and apply some hondabond around the cam depressions on each side and around the edges, thats it. put your NEW ring gaskets in for the plugs and reinstall your plugs.

you could take the spark plug out and the oil will go down into the cylinder, only prob is when you start the car it will smoke for a second. Or air compressor and air gun shove it down the hole and use a rag to cover the top of the spark plug hole and blow it out. it will get soaked up by the rag. or just shove arag down the hole.


And if its reving to only 3000 your in limp mode you need to check what trouble codes you a getting.

Sounds like a code 7 and a code 21...tough to tell unless I am there though...Also, there is no "limp mode" on an OBD0 car. As for the oil leak...the cams go across the top of the head...do you mean it is leaking near the cam gears? To post pics you need a photo page that lets you download your pics and then gives you the correct format in which to post them on sites like this. An example is photobucket. Good luck!

I have never seen someone type so horrible in my life. If you are having oil leaks check and replace your gaskets on the head like Hondretti said. The oil that got into the cylinders will be fine, gas is made of oil it will just burn off with the gas. Unless your cylinders are full of oil, I wouldn't worry about it.

ok dude, pull you plug wires, stuff shop towels down on top of the plug and soak up as much of the oil as you can before you pull that plug out, don't just all the oil dump down in the motor if you can help it.
