well..i popped my hood today and i saw oil covering my transmission and covering the engine code. You guys know what my problem is? lol yea i'm leaking oil...but not sure where.

 

Head gasket... Valve cover gasket... Cam seal..

Check them in this order..

1) Valver Cover... Just pop it off and check to see if there's any wear around it.

2) Cam seal(s) check it when your cover is off...

3) Head gasket... especially if you're running a mini-me.

Oh yeah, and did you remember to take out the oil control jet when you did that??

And don't list Altezza Tail Lights as a mod... yucky..

 

don't forget the distributor seal

 

lol there. Aight, i'll check those. This ain't good though =\ i need to find out asap lol

 

hmm oil control jet...not sure what that is. I bought the engine with it already modified from a 91 CRX Si. So i think the oil control jet was removed?

 

before taking things apart go to a parts store buy a can of engine shampoo, go to car wash wash motor drive for a few days the see exactly where your leak is.

 

well when i bought the engine it only had 2 bolts holding the distributor. So i'm guess it's leaking from there since it should be 3 bolts that holds it.

Bingo... that should do it. And don't worry about the oil control thing I mentioned. You'd know it by now if you bought it that way. Good luck!

 

rofl..corrections, there's only 1 bolt holding the distributor on. gonna go get the bolts and slap em on.
