[boyertownMidnight3]

okay i got a civic 1.5 dc hatchback with a d15b2 with a d16a6 cylinder head the head got 120,000miles and so does the block,,, but i keep getting smoke and when i took off my exhaust manifold i seen oil in the exhuast ports,,, not alot but a little... i just put the head on about 3 weeks ago and ever since its been getting oil into the manifold though the cylinder exhuast ports,,, i have a rebuilt head and im useing a manifold from a 96 civic ex,,,the wierd thing is my spark plugs arent oil soked there normal... but when i took the #4 spark plug out a little smoke came out with it,,,


what could be wrong and would stop leak work,,,


my car holds 3.5 quarts of oil max...

i heard if i put in 1 quart of oil then a bottle of lucas" then a bottle of oil leak stuff it would stop it??

compression test and a leakdown test to isolate the problem.
