ok i got a massive oil leak and ive done replaced the valve cover gasket and the oil pan gasket and the rear main seal gasket..... Im guessing its the damn oil pump but need to know if that could be a problem and is there anywhere else oil could leak from before i start take a look a the oil pump..? any info would help..

my suggestion to you is clean your motor. clean it really good. once all the oil has been removed then periodically check on the motor. eventually the motor will leak again, with it being clean it will be alot easier to spot.

to ask us to figure it out with out see the car is impossible. all we can do is speculate, and even then we can be wrong.

yea ive done that but i looks like it leaks right where the engine and tranny meet but like i said i checked or replaced everything around there and the oil pump is the only other thing that i can think of.... dont wanna take it off if its a easyer thing to replace or somthing else..

if the leak is where the engine and tranny meet, then it's not your pump since the pump is on the opposite side.

have you replaced the distributor seal or o-ring? what about the cam caps on the side? is it a vtec motor?

is the oil leak on top of the motor where they meet, or the bottom?

Could be spool valve gasket too.

well it leaks on the bottom of the motor not on the head or around the head.... but i would guess it runs down to where the motor meets??

Easyest thing to do is check the Dissy Also What motor so u have

oneludesol

if it is around where the motor meets the trans, and it is not coming from the top, it is most likely the rear main seal...

ok imma say this again i replaced the REAR MAIN SEAL, OIL PAN, AND THE VALVE COVER GASKETS... and the dizzy isnt leaking i would have know if it was there.. i got a b18c1 (gsr)

oneludesol

ok, ill say this again... REAR MAIN SEAL. It is the only thing in there that can leak... Maybe you dicked it up when you replaced it. I know I wouldn't let you replace mine.

Slopoke

Are you sure its engine oil and not transmission fluid?

oneludesol

Good question... I assumed that the OP would have known the difference...
