ei guys i have a b16 eg matic sa ek ko. yesterday lng may oil ako nkita sa head gasket, naisip ko baka tulo lng from the camplug at vtec solenoid na i was planning to replace soon pero i saw oil din sa likod ng engine sa may head gasket din. is this posible? dba dpat mauuna magleak coolant or am i wrong? is this a sign na grabe na sira ng engine? and if ever i need to change head gaskets should i opt for stock or ung nagiincrease ng compression? thanks guys! hope you can help!  ??? :-\

were you really able to see the leak from the head gasket from the back side? baka its just the valve cover gasket.

dun lng talaga un oil e, wlang tulo from valve cover, malinis paligid ng valve cover.

if its coming from the head gasket, then have it replaced na. choosing a thinner gasket will increase compression. but since you have an a/t, then you might not fully utilize a high comp engine.

replace the oil seal in the vtec solenoid na rin.

thanks ha. san ba nkakabili thinner head gaskets? any idea on the price? thanks!
