And your running leaner on the #4 cylinder or your gap is bigger on the plug

that gap might be bigger on the plug. I'll check it once I work on the car again.,

Picked up a oil press guage, and order the fitting from stelthmode. Just waiting on it to see if I can see a drop in pressure.

I really dont think its my cam seal leaking. I don't see any oil on the back side of the head, leaking down. Just on that 1 spot.

More than likely its a cam seal. I did a H22 build and it leaked there. It was even a brand new cam seal, (aftermarket) I swapped on a used B16 cam seal and the leak was gone. Check the cams as well make sure they dont have a huge groove on them, this is where the seal rides. I recommend using emory cloth/scotch brite to make it smooth.

Aftermarket fuel rail or stock one?

He's using a BDL rail.

hopefully that will take care of the oil leak.

I think the fitting came in from Stelthmode today. (package @ moms house).

If so I'll switch out the cam seal tonight and plug in the oil guage.

Thats the explaination for the #4 running lean, BDL's inlet fuel fitting overlaps the injector boss port so the fuel has to backwash to get to the injector. Try removing the inner steel collar and filing down the port fitting.

the T came in saturday. So today after work I'll hook up the oil guage and go for a drive. Updates later on tonight.

I did mention that this motor will be boosted?

BINGO* You really do know your stuff Jeff. It is the cam seal. Got my nose in there and really watched it. There was a leak dripping down the head onto the block

on to the next problem. VTEC disenguagement.

Oil pressure guage hooked up results.

Idel: 30psi
driving: 80psi
floor it lightly: 94psi
just befor vtec hits: drops 2psi (92psi)
VTEC : 100psi (maxed out guage)
VTEC shuts off dropped amost 2psi. (this is in 3rd gear) just about 99psi

Now what?
