Default SWEET! :: massive oil leak

yeah so last nite i was on my way to my girls house and noticed i hd no vtec, then i saw that my oil press gauge was bouncing all over the place so i decided toake it easy, went to bed got up started her had like 60 psi of press then as i drove it went down to 10 and slowlly made its was close to 0 YIKES! , luckly i made it to my work as it got to its lowest i immediatly shut her off

so i bend down and look the entire under body coated in mobil 1. ****

so i walk to the nearest cumbies and pick up 4 quarts of oil, i put three in and start it and bend down,,

its spewing out looks like right under the main crank pully , and i can see oil drips all down the timing belt cover .. HELP

anyone know of a common leak under there???

edit: DOH balancer shaft seal, crap!! never mind figured it out

anyone know the part number for that damn seal and the part they made to hold the seal in place im gonna need it!

Don't forget new timing and balancer belts, you know they got coated with oil as well. And while your at it, if it's been a while since you replaced the water pump, it would be a good time to do that as well.

At least you noticed a problem before something catostrophic happened.

Honda has paid for new H22's before because of this, take it to a dealer

Yes, but you had to bring it back to them within a certain period of time, and that time they will cover it has expired.

Call or write their customer service and see if they'll give it to you. It's a long shot, but if you word it right, you might get them to help.

im curious to know what happens when the belts get oil all over them? does it cause them maybe slip, such as skipping.

i don't know what will happen im a bit afraid,, i needed my car bad so i only had time to rip it down and install the new seal and the block plate. i cleaned everything up really well, and both tthe belts seemed fine, as far as oil on the belts and them sliping im not too concerned because they are both toothed belts,
