Ok guys. I rebuilt my LS motor B18b with oem spec parts. I have roughly 7k on the motor so far and everything is running good. I noticed my oil pan is leaking oil only at the right corner of the pan closest to the Driver side headlight. Well i put and OEM honda gasket and gasket sealer on it and torqued all the bolts to sequence and spec. Still leaks!!! It almost looks like its coming from a few of the bolts on the pan. It just drops occationally. The pan is not bent or damaged.. how should i go about fixing this.. Any help is appreciated!
I know its probly a pain in the a$$ but, id drop the pan and get another gasket assuming maybe it was defective or your torque wrench is defective. Honestly it sounds like an over tightning problem to me. Beyond that, i dont know.
