honda civic 98

radiator gets hot only driving a couple of mins.

oil burns really fast.

spark plugs have oil around it.

thanks.

 

time for new motor

 

new motor? its only 90k.. please someone with any sense please reply..

 

check the spark plug grommet for oil leaking into the cylinder head.

 

try changing the gasket seal..in the kit usually comes with valve cover gasket and spark plug seals..i had a similar problem

its a 98 ex with a 00 si motor. seems like the radiator is hot just going
a few blocks. its the same radiator that went with the ex motor. so is changing
the radiator, to an si radiator or better, help to cool the engine more efficiently?

 

theres no leak from the head.
