ok what is the black box on the back of the motor on the right of both the oil sending line and the oil filter?? i got under my car b\c i noticed there was no oil in the engine and i felt around and realized that this was unbolted and part of it was disconected to from the block

 

The PCV valve is on the top of that black box. It is a smog control device

The bottom of it is held in place by one of the bolts that holds the factory "header bracket" on.

you are referring to the oil seperator tank, goes from the block to your PCV valve.

 

ok now should i find a way to reconect it? would this be the problem of why my engine has no oil in it?

 

i have heard from a few differnt people that this is an oil cooler. is this true?

 

Probably not.. it's prolly some smog **** sensoring device to tell the Republic of California if you have been naughty or nice... smog man come visit you at xmas time...

 

Nope. not an oil cooler. It simply seperates oil from blowby and lets the blowby get sucked into the intake manifold and the oil to remain in the crankcase. man, I hope this doesnt turn into another PCV discussion.

 

basicly what i am asking is does this thing being not connected to my motor have anything to do with me not haveing any oil in my motor

 

well if you take that box out, there will be a very large hole in your crankcase,a nd lots of oil all over the place. however, if the box is still in place but the top line isnt connected thats not a big deal, it just means your PCV system isn't hooked up.

 

i fixed the problem!! couldnt have done it with out my fellow hondatech brothers and sisters.!! everyone i cnt even begin to lst names......**** did i jus jinx myself? lemme go check my oil lol

 

You got that right...

 

so what was it? did you take that box out or something?

 

the black box is held in with the bracket fo the eader (the bracket with the 2 bolts on it,) when they hung the downpipe i guess they didnt thing the bracket was connected to anything so they took it off. and yesterday when my car was smokng liek crazy that was the box popping off...and spraying oil all over the place hence the smoke. now the car runs awesme! had me scared i thought it was a crack in the oil pan or something phewwwww im releaveed aint nuthing liek the 2ecod day scare
