Well i finally get it checked out by my mechanic and he tells me the seal on the engine has to be replaced. And its going to be $700 dollers to fix. Im thinking that is pretty expensive. Being i can pick up a used zc for around the same price. Should i get a second opinion? And what would you suggest to do if you were in my shoes? Fix or used zc? thx for your help

I dunno but my crx overheats and it burns abit of oil and leaks rad fluid. i was gonna do the cams but ive changed my mind due to the problem at hand.

And the $700 was to fix the head i guess?

id say if he wants that much to fix it just go get a new zc but first find out what it was that caused the problem of overheating

www.teknotik.com has a D15 vtec for $500 i think.
