N/A b18c1

Mysterious
Engine is a b18c1, it was leaking oil next to the Vtec solenoid...and i changed the cam shaft seal and stopped it from leaking, but now there is oil in my 1st cylinder....Could it be the HEAD GASKET? PISTON RINGS? i haven't done compression test yet....

HELP!
 
Post in the right forum and you'd have better luck.. you posted in parts for sale with a tech question?!

If the oil is leaking into the spark plug hole you need to change the spark plug seals under the valve cover. If it's leaking into the cylinder itself do a compression test. Chances are if that is the case your valve stem seals are leaking, but a compression test is needed to make sure it's not anything more serious.
