B16CRXT

well during a little spirited driving this morning on my way to school to take a test, I noticed it running like ---- under boost. Going down the highway I see all this smoke and the guy behind me washing his windshield like crazy. I pull over in teh next city to get some coffee and a bagel. look at teh back of my car and it is COVERED in oil and oil is dripping all over teh bottom of the car. I thought it had to be my return line at first, but nope. Oil is coming from btwn teh tranny and block like a fountain.

To add to the shittiness, I did a compression test yesterday and got 190 on cylinder 1 and 225 on all others.

I am on the lookout for a B18B to drop in tehre temporarily while I build this damn b16. I may not even bother dropping a b18 in there since I am about to purchase a '95 Jeep Cherokee.

If anyone has some hookups on cp pistons and eagle rods or anythgin let me know. the best deal I have found so far is around $850 combo deal on H-T.

I was hoping to not get to this step in my hobby for another year or so, but it looks like I'm gonna reach 400whp a lot sooner than I expected. (with all new ---- of course..turbo, fmic, etc) someone buy my old ----!

Didn't know hondas had a Rear Main Seal, they have a Main Seal, but it's not at the "Rear of the motor" more like the side.

That sucks.

I hate pulling the tranny. Especially when I don't have any help.

I have to pull mine soon to replace the clutch, and I'm not looking forward to it.

youdontknowmeee

that sucks *****

B16CRXT

hell yea it sucks. I just dropped the motor like 3 weeks ago to put teh new clutch and flywheel in too. At the same time I replaced the front main and rear main seals. It was doing fine until this morning....Looks like I'll be driving a jeep daily for a few months. oh yea, I just washed the car yesterday too. now the back is COVERED in oil.

Can anyone answer my question in ***** pcv thread?

once you get over being pissed, it hdouldn't be that bad to replace it, a lot better than pulling the motor and rebuilding it

My'n is going out in the hyundai, but I don't care, i just put oil in every now and then but its not nearly as bad as yours sounds.
