I removed a spark plug that was drenched in oil and some of it went down into the chamber, and now theres some on the piston. How to I clean it out out thoroughly. Took a clean rag & long screwdriver to soak up as much as possibe, I want to clean it all out before reaplcing the valve cover...
Are there Spark Plug Well seals on the bottom of the chamber like the older engines? Or are they only on the valve Cover for 2016 Civic 2.0L?. Have been having serious misfire & backfiring issues, found oil in the well & on spark plug in Cylinder 2, other cylinders are good. Ordered a new valve...
Also I drove about 150KM somewhere to pick something up, and the car started boggin down pretty bad & went into limp mode. Shut the car off waited 30 mins or so for the car to cool down & the ecu to reset, then drove the car & it drove fine, but started boggin when i got home
OBD reader is throwing a P006A Code. It says possible reasons are MAP Open Or short Ciruited, Hose broken or Major Vaccum leak. Help! Car sounds like its misfiring, bogging down bad. Drives fine for the first 10 mins or so. Changed the MAP sensor, still doing the same. Did a smoke test...
Sorry for the late reply, just seen this. Im still having major issues with my car. initially on startup, it drives fine for about 10 mins or so, untill you let it sit at idle & it starts boggin down, and it sounds like its misfiring. Do you have the same symptoms? My OBD reader is giving a...
So I know about the Vacuum Leak through the OBD Computer (I Used Carly). It gives the P006A Code, and says possible reasons is MAP Open Or Short Circuited, hose broken, or Major Vaccum Leak. And the car I'm referring to is a 2016 Civic LX Manual Naturally Aspirated, no turbo.
As for the...
I got a custom tune done through Dan at E-Tunez aswell, car was running amazing, untill 2-3 weeks ago. I replaced the cone filter with the exact cone replacement from K & N, & then these issues started. I even put the base map & put the custom tune back but same thing. I also changed the valve...
I don't think I'm preassurizing it, guage sits at 0. The smoke machine I got from Amazon (Ancel S200) give you the option to pressurize the system aswell to see if there's a small or major leak, you build preassure to 15psi, i belive & wait & see if theres a drop. I'm using the smoke option, all...
So did the smoke test with the cone filter off, smoke is leaking out of the crank case vent grommet, where the crank case vent tube goes in. Can I put some rtv black gasket maker to seal it? It also seems to be leaking a bit from where the mass air flow sensor sits flush with thr gasket
So stupid question, I'm doing a smoke test for a major vaccum leak, I have a K & N CAI, when I'm doing thr smoke test with the smoke machine, smoke is coming out of thr cone filter of thr CAI. Do I remove the cone filter first, seal the pipe with a bag & then do the smoke test? Is smoke supposed...
I have a 2016 Civic 2.0L, and I have a K & N CAI & a RV6 downpipe. Ever since putting on the CAI, Ive had issues of RPM jumping, sluggish drive & lagging etc. Cleaned the MAF sensor, the throttle body, checked for leaks, did the idle relearn procedure, but nothing helped. After getting a...
Is it possible to access the MAP sensor from the top of the engine to replace it, or do you have to access it from the passenger side wheel well? Are there any youtube videos on replacing it for the 2.0L Civic? only videos I can find are for the 1.5T. Any help would be greatly appreicated
I just ran into this issue while driving, car literally went into limp mode, wont go past 3K RPM. I have the same 2.0L engine with a 6MT. I have a K&N Cold Air Intake & a RV6 downpipe installed, I got a custom tune & uploaded it via Ktuner. Everything has been perfectly fine for the past year &...

Is there a Valve Cover Gasket Kit that comes with spark plug seals & grommets for a 2016 Civic LX 2.0L? Checked everywhere & cant find them, nor can I buy the grommets or seals separately. Honda says you have to buy a brand new Valve cover to get the spark plug seals.
Im buying the valve cover gasket from the dealership, but they dont sell the grommets or spark plug seals, & I cant find any VCG aftermarket kits that include the grommets & spark plug seals. There is one on Rock Auto buts its sold out. Do you know where I can buy an aftermarket kit that has...
My Valve Cover is leaking oil & I need to change it before it damages the starter like it has for many others on this forum. I cant seem to find an aftermarket kit with the rubber gromets anywhere online. Rock Auto is sold out, & I'mm unsure if that one comes with the grommet aswell...
So long story short, I was changing my rear breaks & rotors, & I made a rookie mistake. Before compressing the piston, I took a torx bit & rotated the electronic parking break clockwise to retract the EBP manually as shown in many youtube videos. I rotated it clockwise with my hand until it...
