Help: Bad Idle and Oil Leak on JDM ITR Engine
So I am driving home tonite, after not driving my car for a while. I cracked it and hit VTEC everything was fine. A Few minutes later as I pull into my street the car just sounds terrible. The idle is brutal. I turn it off, pop the hood and check the oil, it is pretty low... still registering on the stick, but low. I fill it up and later notice that there is a puddle developing under the car. It is dark, so I cant totally tell where it is coming from. Its on the Pass. somewhat under the tranny.
The car isnt making any knocking sounds or anything like that. It just has a brutal idle (very low) and the exhaust sounds staggered. Any ideas on what it might be? Headgasket?
Please help.
