Sell me your car and that will fix your problems . lol

I think you should go to a mechanic, i think these repairs are beyond your skill level.

Poor crx

1. you can go to autozone and buy a new "gasket" for the oil pan.
4. call different shops to see who would do it with a tune up.

Go get a Helm's or a Hayne's manual and start learning how to do thing's yourself.

You have no clue how much money you will save yourself now and in the future if you learn how to work on the car yourself.

to licensed, backyard and learning mechanic's for saving yourself money.

Factory Honda CRX Manual is the best. It is very expensive but you get what you pay for.
