well, 1st figure out what the problem is... I've never heard of a 2000 burning oil. what's your mileage?

what's your compression wet and dry?

what do you mean a week or so later it struggles to pick up good? how is your oil level? how much oil are you burning? what makes you say you're burning oil? is it auto or stick? have you owned it since new?

Do you beat on your car?
What are your driving habbits?
Are you the only person that drives this car?

imported_loudsubz 10-Aug-2004 12:04 PM

troyrmanca 10-Aug-2004 12:42 PM

i dont beat the car its driven 2-5 times a day cuz i go to work and back
i dont drive hard but i wanted to know wut i can do to help my car goo..

i dunno the wet//dry compression how do i know or check

white92d15b7 10-Aug-2004 12:46 PM

with such KMS my thought would be its possibly valve seals!!!!!! do a compression test and see what is up with that

troyrmanca 10-Aug-2004 12:53 PM

thanks...how much woudl that run me ne ideas?

bbarbulo 10-Aug-2004 03:28 PM

go see Buddah for a compression test, or go visit concepts on wheels, they should be able to run the appropriate tests to determine where you're leaking oil from...

shlammed 10-Aug-2004 03:42 PM

man my moms 2000 has like 170km and doesn't burn oil

imported_BoOsTd 10-Aug-2004 05:15 PM

do a few synthetic flushes then stay on it if its mild burning, if its bad get it tested...otherwise generaly if you run your honda over 6 thousand rpm frequently, you can pretty much expect oil buring vtec or not.

troyrmanca 10-Aug-2004 10:15 PM

how much does it cost cuz i dont mind doing it if it will help cuz i want to put an intake in my car but cant cuz its brunin oil tanks for all ur help peeps

bbarbulo 10-Aug-2004 11:15 PM

go ahead and put in intake on it, but IMO you're wasting money on an intake when you need far more significant work done. PM Buddah for an appointment to have some tests done.

imported_t_dot_SiR 10-Aug-2004 11:32 PM

drop it a H22 baby! hahaha... that'll solve the problem!!!

well, u should get a professional to inspect your motor... do some compression tests.... see where the problem is... it can be gaskets, pistons, or your whole engine can be messed up soon!

Great bj's too :thumbup:

red90dx 11-Aug-2004 12:33 PM

why not try some of that oil stop leak, or stop burn, from canadian tire?

imported_loudsubz 11-Aug-2004 01:10 PM

i know what your saying though steve

the internet is filled with mis information

my best advice is, if you dont know 100% what your talking about, dont respond, the mis information just gets ****** that way, and you get alot of guesses or maybes, not solid advice

that goes for me 2 :D

I tried the CD2 oil burning stuff from CT and it worked instantly.

dee123 11-Aug-2004 07:31 PM

Lucas works very well. I use it for p.s. and transmissions also. You can get it a c.t.

imported_Nicotine 11-Aug-2004 10:45 PM

i live by lucas.

tranny and oil treatments....... love that ****.....

as for your engine burning oil..that's odd...

my old engine from my hatch (95 cx) had 182,000k on it when we ripped it out, and it wasn't burning oil at all..

honda's do burn oil..but how bad is it?...

as for the boggyness...have you run fuel injector cleaner and a full tank of sonoco 94 thru your car in a while to clean the crap out?

on my old engine, i was getting boggyness at like 160,000...

emptied the tank, put in good fuel line/fuel injector cleaner in and then topped it up with sonoco 94...burned it off with a LONG boot down the highway..it made a difference!!!

edit: and with talking to members on this forum, b16acivic is a trust worthy guy who wont rip you off..... he'll give you the straight lowdown without raping your wallet.
