I got my 94 Acura Integra about a year ago, with 90k miles on the LS motor. it was leaking oil through valve cover gasket, so i replace it with brand new valve cover gasket kit. now i pull out the sparkplug wires and its flooded in oil. i clean it up, take off my valve cover gasket and seal it again with the seal, couple weeks later, its pull it out, still flooded in oil, HOW CAN I FIX THIS and WHAT MIGHT I BE DAMAGING??

 

did u get the whole valve cover kit they changes all the gormets also?

 

i dont even know if you can fix it....i know that i had the same problem with my 95 ls head, and no matter how much i would seal and replace the gasket it would still get oil in there.
maybe someone out there knows what is going on.

you got to get the hole kit 0 ring, gormets and valve cover gasket other wise
the oil leak is not going to stop.

 

i do have the 0 rings...

 

get new gaskets and torque the valve cover nuts back to its spec...

 

Well, IS THERE ANY DMG being DONE to my motor so far or in copule months?!!

 

I had that problem but I bought new O rings and then put just a little honda bond on them and they havent leaked.

I agree with this person! Spend $12 at honda, buy the tube of Honda Bond and apply a little to the Valve cover where the grommets insert, and a little to the head where the grommets come in contact with the cylinder head spark plug cylinders.

Lot's of luck!

No Maing! As Long as your plugs are properly seated, and the plug wires are snuggly attatched I don't see any damage being done. The Oil is just pooling in the cylinder.

 

you are obviously losing power when your spark plugs are moist

But AM i DOing Any Damage to my MOTOR when my sparkplugs are moist with oil and my sparkplug wires are moist with oil!!!

 

If the oil isnt getting inside the combustion chamber and the plugs aren't fouling b/c oil is getting b/t the boot and plug, other than a little oil loss, you should be fine. Just take the plugs out and sop up the oil every oil change.

 

honda bond

 

TUBE SEALS THAT WILL FIX YOUR PROBLEM

 

Some cheep gasket maker works just fine. Black or Orange High heat. Walmart is like 3 or 4 bucks.
Just place a thin layer around the whole gasket and rings, then replace valve cover. Should work just fine. Save a few bucks from honda bond.

 

i have the same problem right now with my 93 ls man get it fixed this is gonna sound nuts but i was going down 95 and i fowled out my plugs and sum how oil leaked into my clutch and well thats not good cuz letsjust say i have a new clutch now ...

 

oi.. my thing is leaking too on the cover gasket... hmm im gonna have to it get replaced. do you have to get it professionally done? friend says its kinda hard..

 

hard no unless you don't have a 10 mm 3/8 socket then you need to buy some tools. It should take like 10 minutes to change the gasket and use some rtv or hondabond.
