Civic EG

Please help me out,
I suspect im leaking oil but i dont know where. Oil leaks out onto the top of the trans, and at the bottom of my oil pan. It was a thick layer until i cleaned it. My friend told me it was my distributor o-ring so i replaced it but it still leaks. and now its another layer of dirty shit. can someone pleas help me out<3 lolol

It could still be leaking at the dizzy if its internal.Check by wiping underneath the dizzy and also open it up to see if its leaking internaly. Also is your motor a vtec motor? If so look at the Vtec solenoid, they leak a lot there if not properly seated and sealed. One more place your valve cover, could be leaking around the area where the dizzy and end of camshaft are coverd. Hope that helps.

Yep, Dizzy O-ring is a common leak

could also be the cam cover leaking and runing down beside/behind the dizzy.

bad dizzy O ring+bad cam cover seal=oily mess

No you don't have to. There is a diy that teal dx made I will post it when I get home or someone else can..

If he doesn't already have a dizzy, he has to buy a reman(new ones from non Honda don't work/work like crap). They (dealer, autozone, etc) don't sell the stupid little 5/10 cent piece of rubber and a spring by itself.

You can buy the little rubber piece online..Why pay so much for another dizzy unless you find one for cheap.

Teal's is a rebuild or swap of parts from dizzy to dizzy but its the same principle just remove the inner piece and replace with a new one.

Where I am, Civic engine parts are either don't exist or are retarded expensive. Most people still wanted 75/100 for a dizzy, when for not much more, I got a fresh reman off of a site. Where do they sell the gasket, cause I couldn't find it, or a P/N anywhere.

Thanks for the post I'm going to have to take off the cap because i have the same problem

i had no choice but to buy a junkyard dizzy for $250.... just have to get ripped off at some point in your life.. thats life lol
