Default Please help me ;/

I went and took my friend for a lil ride in my d16y8 turbo del sol and when we got back i smelled something real odd. I pop the hood and there is oil all over the right side of the block, underside of the hood, pretty much all over the right side of everything. No oil pressure light came on dunno what happened. I haven't jacked it up yet I just wanna see what people think ;[

I tried to describe it as best as i could. It was all fine and dandy since SUnday til today when I got the exaust put on. I dunno whats up. Guess I'll check out the fitting on the back of the block since I didn't tighten it all that great. Hopefully it's something simple ;/

Wow, you know what, this might be it. lol Cause everything was fine and good and then I think yesterday I checked the oil to see if it was low. I dunno. I'm gonna throw it on jack stands again and look around a little. But this would make the most sense because the underside of the hood was covered as well. But it would have had to shoot up.

Well I guys I think it was the dipstick. I went out wiped everything with oil on it off and noticed the dipstick was sorta in but it wasn't pressed down all the way. So I pressed it down and drove it to work. Got on it a little bit to get the oil pressure going. When I got to work and looked there was no leak :-D weeeeee Last night I was so bummed about this **** ;/ lol I&lt;3Honda-Tech
