I just removed my valve cover, I was just getting ready to paint and then it started raining.... Anyways I put everything back together but I was wondering if its going to be leaking oil. I just drove the car hard for about 10-15 mins just to see if its going to be leaking oil. Before I took it for a spin, I wiped everything down and when I came back everything was clean & dry but you guys let me know. Here are some pics:

 

If you drove it and its dry then hopefully you should be good. Did you put any honda bond on it?

Get ready for some great responses!!!

Yes its all going to leak out. All over your motor and back tire. But seriously, if you drove around and it didnt leak then you should be fine. And if it dose leak then just get a new Valve cover gasket.

 

this could be hazardous..is that a word?

 

Just because it started to rain, why would that make you think it would leak after you put it back together?

 

I was about to paint it but it started raining, thats why I had to put everything back together.

Hehe. Kinda what I was thinking.

 

ever heard of a rhetorical question?

 

wtf?! It looks fine

 

Just another shingo cam....
If it leak before it will leak again... eventually on the usual dizzy spot.

 

i answer my own questions

 

i think i see a lil' oil there.. might be time for a new motor

 

LOL! One day people, I'll have a B16a2 swap, maybe Santa will bring one this year. BTW, thanks guys for answering my question. When it comes to dissamble, assembling motors....I am somewhat of a noob so I hope you guys understand. I'm on this board to learn.

 

no problem, just replace the gasket if it starts to leak, no biggy.

 

it looks fine...as long as you did everything within specs, then you shouldn't have anything to worry about good job

 

haha yeah, sorry, i was j/k it looks good to go!

Are Honda's prone to corrosion ? I see alot that look like this. No wonder people have electrical trouble.
