Alright, here's the deal.

I've had my EG hatch since April and When I got it it leaked out all the radiator fluid first day and confronted the past owned about it and he said it was my driving . . . don't really know how that comes into play when it's not like I was making the tranny jump like crazy but anyways enough for the small talk. I feel as though I was ripped off with this hatch, but so far it runs really loud and I took it to my friend and he said the valve timing was off and that my ECU (P28) on the B16A3 made it run all funky cause the check engine light always comes on after 60 mph. So I pulled it out of my driveway today and I looked under and there was some rusty water leaking out of lord knows where. Now I have another problem and I'm not sure whether it should be a concern but I'll post pics. any help would be lovely, thanks Honda-Techrz.

 

so wait, there's rusty water under the ecu? im confused. The pics are in the engine bay, is your ecu located there?

 

I don't know where the rusty water was coming from. There's nothing wrong with the ECU, it's just the wrong one for my engine set-up. I need a p30 but I don't have the money for a p30. -_- But there's a leak of oil I believe, look at the pictures its coming from by my transmission and by my exhaust.

 

First check your oil level and top it off.
Clean up all the oil and run the engine a short distance.
Search around for the source of the leak and repair as appropriate.

As far as the water is concerned, keep the level up and focus on one problem at a time.

Switch from Top Ramen to Bottom Ramen, save the pennies, and get the p30

 

you can save alitte money with that p28. Just ship to pherable.net and talk to the guys there and they'll hook it up.


Chipped p28's seem to run smoother in b16 swapped cars then p30's to me anyways.

 

Thanks alot man, haha I tried saving to buy the P30 but all this other crap came up. GSR Integra brakes with discs in the rear, new Koyo B-Series radiator. -_- But yeah, I'll look into where it's coming from. Still don't know why the block looks so saturated in oil. Is that normal?


How much do they usually charge plus shipping if I send in my P28?

75 bucks.


and they have nice free options aswell.

 

get a couple cans of brakleen. spray that thing off then look for a leak. trace it back. hope its nothing major..

chipped p28's runs smoother than the oem p30? and this is coming from the guy who asked the op if the ecu was in the engine bay.

op, the only thing i can think of that might be leaking in that area is the battery. how old is the battery?

i gave an opinion. and you should re-read the questions before you try to insult me. I surely know where an ecu is normally located.

 

i would replace oil pan gasket and valve cover gasket then brakleen all the oil spots and keep a eye on it.

 

I would seriously have a leakdown test performed asap...you could have a blown head gasket. Wait much longer and it could be a blown engine.

 

The battery is a brand new Diehard extreme? but I noticed where I connect the positive it has some blue corrosion going on and it comes back everytime I clear it off. -_- Weird part is I had just got it checked and there was no leaks. =/

There goes my day lol.
