ok.. i can't figure out why i am throwing oil out my exhaust. it doesn't smoke and its throwing a good bit of oil out... i mean not burned oil. any suggestions on why this is happening ?? or where this could be coming from.. there is no oil on the ground where i park or any leakage that i can see. please help.

looks like oil to me. Hows your compression and such in your motor?

hmmm.. haven't checked that yet.. but damn it runs like a champ.. i mean i am pulling hard on H22s !! i have a little bogging on take off in 1st gear but i think that has to do with the ecu. i will check compression tomorrow then. any more ideas ??

Something could be letting an access amount of oil out when your running in the higher rpm. That sometimes happens on vtec motors but usually it burns off. Mine did it for a while before it went away BUT there was also another thing I had specs like that on my rear bumper. I looked underneath my car and my transmission/block rear main was leaking. It also happened again when i swapped trans but that was a simple fix.
EDIT: the logical reasoning for this is that its leaking and when driving it pushes oil toward the back of the car. Because of the aerodynamics of the car thats where it goes. Just thought I would add that. So if its pulling like a champ then shouldnt worry about engine. Anyway you would notice oil consumption issues.Last edited by NAiL05; 10-28-2007, 09:41 PM.

Wow. Time for a Compression test.Comment

ok.. replaced all seals when i did the swap...i will jack the car up and see if i can see any oil underneath too..
the real thing that is pissing me off is that i have done dozens of swaps for other ppl and they go fairly smooth but now when i get ready to do mine.. which a real basic swap.. shit just keeps happening. 
... i mean i have put h22's in almost everything and no problem.. have done B18 swaps and all that but my swap has given me the BIGGEST problem so far.

Well I would look for leaks mainly underneath the car you should find it. I found a trail down my exhaust pipe lol (outside of it that is) and a wet trans.
