i have a problem with my 91 civic
first of all i got a used d16a6 head from a buddy of mine and i took the orginal head off the car and place the head i got on. after i put it back on, it just started draining oil every 2-3 weeks. the bottom block is also a d16a.
whats wrong with it? can anyone help me out?

 

where is it draining oil from?

maybe replace your oil pan seal washer....

 

the oil i pour in my motor
like every 2-3 weeks i check my oil to see how it is
its always going down from where i had the oil on my oil stick.
its on the first hole then it goes down slowly.
its no dripping anywhere

Draining from where, like all of the oil is gone? an oil leak? are you seeing exhaust smoke? and is the smoke white, blue, black?

 

Probably burning off, passing though the hashed valve guides and seals.

 

yea thats what i mean lol
the oil burns quickly but for sure i know its not the bottom block cause nothing is wrong with it before i put the head on
oh well, i'll see what happens
thanks guys

 

Yeah, you probably wanna seal that sucker up.

Headgasket....
Piston Rings....
