Hi guys,
I'm doing the head gasket on my crx and my haynes manual Says to replace the oil control jet o ring. But at the dealer I was told it doesn't have an oil control jet?
Soo now I'm a bit confused.
Can you guys help me find the part number for it
I don't have the head off yet so I have no clue.
Is it necessary to replace. I've googled pics of newer civics and it looks hard to replace so some tips on how to replace it would be nice.
thanks

you can pop out the old with a screwdriver...!!!

 

^really? I use a screw and lightly thread into the jet and use that to pull it out. How would you do it with a screwdriver?

 

^eyeglass screwdriver^

 

ehh i wouldnt worry about it. ive never replaced it. ive only ripped the whole control jet out to do a mini me swap,(yes it has one) and i used a drywall screw threaded into the middle to pull it ouut of the head. not a scewdriver. good way to scratch the block IMO

 

can't believe you sissys are all paranoid in using a small screwdriver some people either use a screwdriver or a screw or anything pointed to remove the damn thing...its even recommended in one of the mini-me write ups in the faq's...!!!

not really scared to..just wayyyy easier to thread a screw into it that will actually grip it allowing you to pull it right out. never really tried picking at it with a screwdriver when i have soo many screws laying around my workbench

 

i said that you can use either or and it doesn't take a can of spinach with any extra muscle to pop one off anyways

 

yeah usually doesnt take much. i just had to drill one out not too long ago. sumbtch was pretty stuck. didnt wanna budge

 

Eyeglass screwdriver, good tip

 

Thanks guys, I used a toothpick to get mine out, but the o ring goes on the jet not on top right. I couldn't figure it out, I thought it went on top so I just ended up leaving it alone. because it didn't look like I wzas given the right one

 

On the jet like this...

 

Yea, mine is a little different though an the o ring is more squarish, the o rng they gave me was too small so I left it alone

 

The old o-ring is square because it's been in there for years and formed itself to the shape it's been confined to. The o-ring is made of rubber so it does stretch you know...

 

I thought that , but it's too late now, it was still in good cond. though and everything is working fine so I got lucky
