Default Bad news :(

Hi guys, I have bad news....(2000 honda civic si)

I was driving home from school when all of a sudden my check engine light keeps FLASHING, and my engine started making weird noises, my car was low idling and then it died. First thing I checked was my spark plugs, as I check them, I find oil in all of them. I had to tow my car, $200.00 35 mile trip.

I did go to one of my good friends that's a mechanic, he recommended that, I should change my valve cover gasket, spark plug tube seals and spark plugs, I have to drain out the oil the is spilled everywhere.

My only way I can describe how my car sounds is that, it sounds exactly like a subaru sti, it rumbles just like it, when car turns on, it idles for 4 seconds and then goes down rpms and then dies.


Please help me with your knowledge honda-tech today was a sad and long day for me.....plz....
