oil leakage.. Help
yea so i haven't been driving the 90 civic for a month and i just checked my spark plugs and the plubs are soaked with oil. Also, i have no idea where the oil is leaking from the car. I checked the oil filter, oil pan gasket, and head gasket there all fine. I have no idea where the oil is leaking from when i turn on the car..
Get a valve cover gasket set, valve cover gasket, spark plug o rings and washer seals under the bolts that hold the valve cover to the head (if you have them). Also replace the PCV Valve and grommet and rubber PCV hose. End of problems.
Pull spark plugs, spray down the area with carb cleaner, clean the wires really good, crank the engine with the plugs removed to blow out most of this mess, lay an old towel across the volve cover to catch most of this spray. Re-install clean plugs and wires, start engine and burn all the oil / carb cleaner mix out of the engine until it stops smoking, drive around and kill a few bugs.
