Ok, I have 2 questions:

First: I seem to have a pretty decent water leak because I have to add water to my 93 Lude Vtec once about every 4 days. Problem is, I never see any dripping from my car when its parked. Any ideas or known problems?

Second: If I drive my car between 2 and 4 grand, my check engine light will come on but below 2 and above 4 it won't. My thinking is a bad O2 sensor. Any ideas or known problems.

TIA, J

 

check all your coolant lines. could be a head gasket.

check the code for the check engine light.

 

check your oil to make sure no water is getting into it, if it is then it is most likely a head gasket

No water in oil, I think I may have heard a hising noise coming from the front of the head behind the exhaust manifold. If it was a head gasket, would it have to be dumping water into the oil or could it be a head gasket problem without even touching the oil?

 

there are 2 ways to tell if you have water in the oil, one drain it and you should notice because it seperates, two the oil level will be high but if it was low to start (which is common in h22's because they burn oil a little bit) then you may not notice as much. If its bad though the oil will turn a lighter color all most a dookie brown.. but thats only when its really bad.

also make sure you have your radiator cap on correct, i can't remember if all hondas have the arrow but if it does make sure its pointed towards the overflow line on the side of the stem where the radiator cap is.
and i can't answer the engine light portion you should try to find what code is showing..
