Default Engine Help

Wus up everybody i'm new here the name is Tony and i have some questions. My wife bought a 1995 Honda civic ex being that she does not know much about cars only what i have told her. The engine has been leaking some kind of liquid on the top throu the head gasket don't know if it's oil or antifreez also she says when she is driving the car it tends to get a little slow like it has not pull and it takes a while for it to pick up some speed could it be maybe the gas pump i don't know much about Hondas. My other question is do you gutys have a DYI section for doing things like this Like the head gasket, water pump, and other stuff. Also i'm in the ATL area if anyone knows of a good mechanic i realy want to get this car fix to do some honda shows cause i drive a Scion xB.

Well i hope to hear from anyone about this problem and i might post some pics to so that u guys can see. Thank U.

time for top overhaul I suppose...all them rubber seals must hv been worn out pretty badly since the last time the previous owner replaced them...at least hv the valve cover rubber seals and distributor O-ring replaced....those are common place for leaks....I wud clean up the motor afterwards so it'll be easier to trace anymore leaks afterwards...
