Have a healthy d16y8 no leaks at all except for one I cant get rid of....
The damn vtec solenoid keeps leaking where it meets the head.
I have bought 2 brand new gaskets from Honda and they have failed on me in the past 2 months.
I also went to Autozone the last time I changed the gasket and got some grey sealent, lasted 2 days now its the same.
Suggestions??

 

Should I try another vtec solenoid? sand it?

was it a vtec swap? if so you will need to take out the oil jet so the vtec can activate without blowing through gaskets.

 

No sir original motor in car, no swaps all stock
