    Driver side oil leak. New crank seal & oil pan gasket. What else could it be?

    Ahh dipstick tube gasket/oring(I think)! I'll check that out Yeah the oil comes straight from there it appears. I thought it was the crank seal, but that's been replaced. Oil pan gasket replacement went pretty smoothly. Used small amounts of rtv on the "U" edges. It definitely needed...

    Driver side oil leak. New crank seal & oil pan gasket. What else could it be?

    A quick history. Car is bone stock 97 Civic DX 5 speed with 251k miles (but in pristine condition except for the stupid oil leak!)

    AC compressor clutch sticking only when hot?

    Hello, Before I replace the entire compressor, I want to see if I can get any extra insight on this problem. I have a stock '97 Civic DX. AC works well until temperatures get past 85ish degrees. When I watch the AC compressor cycle on and off, the spinning part (clutch?) will move...

    What AEM intake is this for?

    I have an AEM intake, but I don't know what it's for. I think it came off my friends Civic SI, but the Ebay pictures are different. What is this for and how much is it worth without the filter and couplings? Thanks

    Took cluster bulbs out..put them in. Don't work any more

    This is weird. I did a search, and couldn't find anything. I am talking about the two small Toshiba light bulbs at the front top of the cluster that screw in. One is by itself and one has two wires connected to it. A week ago I disconnected the left side while I was opening up my cluster...

    Bouncing speedo, fuse 15 good

    Checked the VSS plug at the sensor on the tranny. Unplugged it. Didn't see much corrosion, but cleaned it anyways with a Q tip. Removed the cluster and cleaned the connections. Removed the cluster, then removed the speedometer from the cluster, and blew off any dust on it. I didn't see anything...

    Bouncing speedo, fuse 15 good

    Update: I cleaned the VSS. Took the gear/shaft out of the sensor part, and cleaned it up. Has some corrosion, but nothing bad. Put it back together. The speedometer worked perfectly for about a half a mile, then started to act up again. Haven't found the fix.

    Bouncing speedo, fuse 15 good

    I have a 1997 Civic DX 5 speed. My speedometer just started bouncing around out of nowhere today. It still works, but it reads inaccurate. It doesn't read until I'm moving ~15-20 mph and then quickly catches up. IT is accurate at around 25-35 mph, then at 40-50+ mph it reads 10mph higher than...

    Vtec & non vtec spark plug wires

    Quick update: Just did a quick test, and the wires that fit on my 1997 Civic fit on an F22B1 accord directly. A buddy of mine has the exact same wires (brand and everything), and they fit like OEM. Now onto test the F22b2 and d16y5 Vtec-E. I am pretty sure they use thicker wires, and I have a...

    It does throw a code every few months. I just reset it. Sometimes the check engine light goes out by itself. p0420 or something like that. No codes right now. Been a few months now.

    Can oxygen sensor go bad from cracked manifold?

    I know the sensor is not the reason why I failed smog. I am just wondering if running it rich could have damaged the o2 sensor as well.
