Blown head gasket on a 16 valve what motor is that a D15B1 OR B2 SOHC?

 

You didn't say what car you have... There is more than just one "EF" motor anyways. Also you could just look at the block ID about half-way down - transmission side - and figure it out yourself.

 

its a 1991 honda civic ef si hatch

 

should be a D16A6 unless the engine was ever swapped

 

nope stock motor

 

i think its a d16a6 16 valve non vtech

 

if its stock engine just look on the engine block it will say

 

thanks its a d16a6 now i gotta get parts for the head

 

make sure to get oem honda stuff or youll have problems.

 

so get the parts from honda is what your saying

 

you can find oem stuff online or dealership. using anything cheap is a mistake. if youre not upgrading the motor for more power use an oem headgasket oil seals and stuff and youll be good

 

checking for oem parts but it keeps showing forums

 

just call honda dont buy the bull **** autozone sells

make sure you get a water pump and timing belt and tensior while your at it

 

not too cheap http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com/ maybe someone else will chime in with a cheaper site

 

i gotta buy new water pump anyway mine broke i just replaced timing belt jus gotta fix the head

 

seems to me you do **** *** back words

why would you replace your timing belt and not the water pump to?

just replace everything or your just going to keep having problems bruh

 

replaced timing belt then the water pump broke n blew the head gasket. water pump n head gasket jus gotta be changed

 

It's good you figured out your engine didn't come with a phone on it. WHY did you not just look for yourself to figure it out? If you are capable of changing the headgasket then... I am just going to sit back and watch for his "My car won't start/ I bL0 mAh cAhRz ooP y0" thread... Have fun!

 

1) take the head to a rebuilder. Have them check the head and replace any bent valves(which I bet money on). They will refurb it and resurface the head.

2) buy a new waterpump and tensioner - christ go ebay if you're lazy.

3) buy an adjustable cam gear - since the rebuilder will probably shave your head a bit, this will allow you to adjust your cam timing to compensate.

4) if you can't handle the preceding 3 points, then bring the car to a decent mechanic.

 

didn't go oem and still haven't had no problems here...!!!
