ok i have a d15b2 in my car and its burning oil like crazy what can it be and whats the best way to fix it people have told me to get a new motor but idk can i just change the head and if yes what kind of heads can i put on it can i put any kind of d series head on it or would it mess my motor up

 

Changing the head might or might not fix burning oil. First off, are you sure it's being burned and not leaked? Next thing to do is a leakdown test, to tell you where pressure is being lost.

 

Rings
Valve seals
Valve stems

do a compression test, if it seems low, add a cap full of oil in the sprk plug holes, retest.. if the number is higher, its the rings. if its near the same, then its the valves.

You can take the head to a machine shop and they can service it. usually about 175.

then a new headgasket, water pump, and gaskets to do the job correctly.

Info to do all this is online with some savvy searching.

 

yea its being burned in the morning when im on my way to work you just see clouds of white smoke for like for 5 min and then it stops, theres not leak ive checked and how do you do the leakdown test

 

whooaa.. white smoke or blueish white?

If your not sure, have someone follow you.

you could have a headgasket issue, means your head needs to go to the machine shop

 

its a blueish white smoke is that bad
and thats what ima probably do take the head to a machinist
if i change the head just to say like a d16y8 and put it on my d15b2 would it fit or no

 

Stop with the head swap idea. It may or may not be the problem. You might need new rings. You might have a leaky seal somewhere. You can't know until you do the leakdown test.

It's in the FAQs. It's also easily found through Google. Search for "how to leakdown test site:honda-tech.com"

 

Id say save your money and time and just swap the motor.. (if you can) You can pick up d series for cheap. I just bought 3 for 150 bucks, granted they were just the blocks and heads but you can use all the stock stuff you have n swap it onto the new block. much easyer and quicker than tearin the head off and waitin for it at the machine shop, plus then you gota buy the head gasket..

 

Okk thanks for the ideas I appreciate it
