Loss of oil? 99 Honda Civic LX?
I'm either losing it or burning it. Any suggestions on where to look, I looked at the oil pan and yes, there's some oil there, but its not alot… I've searched the engine over and over, there's a puddle near the distributor, but i checked the seal and it looks fine…
How much oil are we talking about? If you don't see blue smoke, then the engine isn't burning a lot of it.
And when you check for leaks, have the engine running--that way the oil will be pressurized enough to come out wherever it is escaping from.
And if it is less than a quart you have to add every 1000miles, then it probably isn't a big deal.
- Honda dirt bike power loss? The bike got water in the cylinder and the piston stopped because of pressure in the cylinder. I forced kicked it and it broke free and started… After this it seems like I don't have very high top speed
- Is going from synthetic oil in my '03 HOnda Hybrid to regular oil bad? Over 100K miles, always used synthetic oil. Took the car to my mechanic to have brakes checked, and he thought the oil looked dirty so he drained it and put in regular oil. Now I'm concerned about my engine. Advice please? I do not know what kind of regular oil he put in.
- Will a oil pressure sensor cause a 1999 honda civic not to crank if oil is low? While I was driving I noticed it wouldn't go any faster while I was going about 60mph but I felt the transmission spinning and the revs were high I then pulled over and put the car in Park and noticed the engine wasn't on Or Is it seized?
- Oil Change: Honda Motor Oil Vs Generic oil, does it make a difference? I have been getting oil changes with Honda motor oil for 15 years on my 2002 civic that now has 132K miles. If I switch to a generic $10 oil change garage shop will it still be ok? I know the Honda filters are better then the cheapest generic ones but how about the actual motor oil?
