Anyways, i had the leak coming from vtec solenoid. I ordered the parts for the b17. Put the parts in, the bigger gasket went in sort of rough. I had to force it in a bit. I torqued everything right and the leak was gone untill the next day it started leaking real bad. 10 times worse than it was before. I took the thing apart and what do i see, the bigger gasket cracked. Good thing i didn't throw out my old one out so i had to put it back. Both of them differ a bit. The old one i had just feels like a much hard rubber compound but maybe cause it's too old.

The question is, which gaskets do i use for the jdm b16? Shouldn't all b series vtec solenoid gaskets be the same?
Thanks in advance.

 

Wow, no one has jdm b16 in their tegs? Or you guys just being ignorant?

 

I'm not sure either....bump for you though

 

I've got a B16 head on my integra. So far everytime I've required a part I was able to salvage something off a B16 out of a Del Sol. Try that?

How am i being an *** dude? Whenever there are questions i can answer i always do and i always help out if i can. The whole honda-tech and not a single person has first gen b16 in their cars? Why do you even bother with a comment like that? You got no answer why even bother posting?

I bought exact same gasket and it didn't fit right, that's why it cracked since i had to sort of push it in into the groove or i over torqued the screws due to not having a small torque wrench but i didn't apply much pressure. The leak was gone exactly for about a day. Next morning it came on again. Someone mentionned before that i need the NSX gasket. They look rather similar but have different part numbers.
