96CivicHatch

I went to check out a GS-R yesterday when I looked at the motor and noticed a layer of oil. The owner said it was common for the seals of Integras to crack and have some oil leakage, but I thought it may have been a head gasket problem. The car is a 94 GS-R with 55k miles. Can anyone help me out on this?

where was it leaking from?

p-stone

First thing that comes to mind is the cam seal. Those are common to wear and tear causing leaks. Nothing that can't be remedied with an aftermarket billet seal for $20. Pretty easy to replace too.

thats what the owner said. are there any records of common head gasket problems?

cam seals can make things look alot worse than things really are if they are not fixed asap. trust me. know from experience. easy fix.

as far as headgasket goes, take a compression tester up there. and check the numbers across the board. that will determine if the headgasket is leaking.

and if you arent intrested in/or dont get the car for w/e reason, pm me the details on it and location. haha

B series HG's don't normally blow around that mileage unless it used to be boosted....

I agree on the cam seal, very common problem.
