ok after a huge ordeal with my car in a shop about 3 months ago i got it back about a month and a half ago. Well it seems slow as **** and it had a skunk2 im put on. Now the cel light keeps comming on and it is leaking oil i take that back it is spewing oil from underneath the car. Before i got fucked by thrust motorsports this car ran perfect no problems. No i can't seem to get it fixed. What do you guys think the problem my be. also how do i check the code it is throwing. thanks had to vent even more.

theres two green plugs on the passenger side under the dash. use a paper clip to jump the plug with two wires on it. then turn the key to acc. and count the blinks of the cel.long blinks are worth 10 and short are worth 1. count them and then go herehttp://londonautoclub.kicks-***.org/html/Tech_Info/Honda_CEL_Codes.htm

Figure out where that oil leak is coming from, I think that would be top priority. What else has been done to it, what exactly is the set up?

also sometimes when i press on the gas as i am taking off it will reach 2k-3k and just stop like it bogs but i am barely pressing the gas

You have to give more details, we don't even know what engine you are running, there could be a turbo involved, etc. Someone might be able to help, but you gotta give some more info.

it used a half a quart of oil in 200 miles

ok it is a (d16z6) about 136000 miles on it. i had a cam put in it in june. The cam broke. After a huge deal with that shop. i took it somewhere else got it runnin but it runs slower than it did before i had the cam and im put on.

also the stock cam is back in with 2 new valves

i would suggest doing this **** yourself. stop wasting your money going to shops, unless you can find an experienced shop.

get a jack, jack up the car and get under there and find out where exactly the oil is coming from.....

i doubt an oil leak has something to do with cams and an IM, but get under there and tell us what you find

95civicracer

i have done that. I thought the oil was comming around the oil filter because it was a little lose but that was not it so back on the jacks it goes next time i can get home from school. i do most **** on my own. but not a cam i know **** about it.

Sounds like this engine has been through hell, ever consider getting a new z6 swapped in, and possibly transferring all the upgrades you already have?

the mech. that fixed it while i came to school said the engine was fine except for the 2 bent valves and cam that broke at the gear.

Maybe this problem is out of my league, but 2 bent valves and a broken cam seem like a big deal to me. I would be worried something else was knocked out of whack as a result.

its cheaper to just get a new z6 swapped in man and start fresh!

thanks for all the help guys keep sending ideas. and i am hunting down the ****** that did this to my car.
