Whats up everyone? NooB here to cb7tuner but not to the honda community or the forum community im real big on CarolinaHondas.com. I have a problem with my cb7 though. I have a H22a4 swapped in and am having an oil leak issue. It seems to be coming from the back of the motor and only leaks for about 20 mins after i turn the car off. I have replaced the cam seal and its still leaking. Getting tired of parking in the yard! Its not just one spot either it seems to be running down the tranny and dropping in multiple places. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Oil leak Issue

Alittle confused @ the back of the motor yet runs down the tranny? Which "cam seal" was replaced? The camshaft seals on the t/b side, or the infamous P30 cam seal/plug on the dizzy side? Check out both dizzy seals, both internal and external, v/c gasket, vtec solenoid. Any oil coming out of the lower timing cover? Do you have an oil cooler? How's the oil pan gasket look, and lastly, any oil coming from the flywheel access cover plate?

If it's coming from where the tranny mates to the block, the rear main seal is VERY likely. It's also one that is known to fail. If it fails completely, your motor will be destroyed. It's a very large seal, and failure will cause instant oil starvation.
The transmission must come off to replace it. I decided not to replace mine when I last did my clutch... I'm probably going to regret it (not leaking... but it's probably 1994 original)
