    hi guys,

    tanong ko lang saan pa possible causes ng oil leak. my car's civic 96 vti. everytime i leave my garage may droplets of oil. although small lang naman. the actual drops are from the splash shield although i'm not sure where exactly it's coming from. sa may area siya ng compressor.

    i had it checked and replaced the following:

    -oil pan gasket
    -crakshaft seal
    -camshaft sea
    -cylinder head gasket
    -distributor o-ring

    TIA

    since madami ka na napalitan, i think its best to really isolate it.
    di mo ba makita kung san nangagaling? if not, ipa lifter mo.

    actually pina-lifter ko na siya and hindi talaga makita saan galing. sa term nga natin is "nangangabay" ang oil. i tried to look for the source myself and i noticed that the lower half of the engine block at the rear is oily.
    i've read somewhere that the pcv valve maybe the culprit. possible ba na tumagas ang oil from the pcv?

    engine wash then observe kung saan nagmumula ang leak. mahirap makita kapag marumi IMO.

    Here's the suspect: the oil sending unit .
    I replaced it over the weekend.

    I hope this solves my oil dripping woes. Pati Iyong 2 aso ko na mahilig matulog sa ilalim Ng sasakyan oil matted parati Ang fur.
