i need a little B16 help.

By EG_Man
- Tue Feb 21, 2012 4:18 pm #295764 I just put together a b16 and everytime I turn it on oil is practically pumping out on the tranny side below the dizzy inbetween the head and the block, no where else just the left side. My compression is 160 on all 4 cylinders so I know the head gasket is not folded. my oil pressure goes straght to about 65psi when I turn it on so I'm wondering if therz maybe to much oil pressure and its pushing out the vtec oil line. Anyways I'm at a complete loss with this one so if anyone has and helpful advice it would be very helpful.

- Wed Feb 22, 2012 11:02 am #295869 are you sure its escaping from between the head and block?

did you piece the motor together or the swap?

Id start simple, check the vtec solenoid gasket, exhaust cam seal and distributor o-ring make sure they're leak free.
