Hey everyone, 2night i happend to have a good size oil leak on my 95 honda accord lx. This year i replaced the oilpan and gasket and checked them NO LEAK!!! Oil fliter is not lose or wet around it !!!

It seems the oil is running down the block? from some wears, From searching i seen it could have been the Oil pressure sensor? Just wondering is this common? Do we have a Diy for it anywears?

The other day while starting my car the Oil light did not turn on so i shut it off and cracked the key again, then the light turned on so i checked the oil it was fine, and started the car and let it warm up no issues! Could that have been a sine of my sensor craping out? I plan to replace it this weekend What Do you guys recomend to seal it when i put it in? RTV? or just thread it in?

Thanks for the help

 

Yes, always use thread sealer after you taken out the oil pressure sensor; otherwise, it'll leak on you. That oil light should only come on if you're running low on oil which equals low pressure.

 

well update not the sensor, i have no OIL LEAK, Its my water pump even better, great and its 20deg with a 6in to12in snow storm on the way just my luck, o0o well, i will get the parts and tare into it this wk and see how i make out, 1st time doing a timing belt and blance belt and water pump on accord.
