Default problem with the gaskets


hello guys, i am going to put a turbo in my integra (b18a1 with 100k stock) and i think its recomendable to buy the complete gaskets of the engine and put it all new... do you think its good idea??? or only change the timing belt with the complete kit???, or both??

do you have any puddles when you park under your car ?

is your motor dirty with oil on it?

how many miles on your motor ?

no , what you need to do is find out where your leaking your oil from and get the problem fixed.

clean the motor off so the next time it leaks you can see better where its coming from.

if the motor is fully covered in oil, looking at it will make it seem like everything is leaking.
