Default 91 Integra problems

OK heres the deal....I just bought a 91 integra and the bitch already dosent run. Sunday i went and test drove it and it ran perfectly fine. Then on Monday I went ot check the compression of the motor and after taking out the plugs the bitch started giving me problems. I noticed that the spark plug grometts were leaking because there was oil on the spark plug boots and on top of the plug. Then once i checked the compression i put everything back and it would not start i finally got it to start but it ran like shit it would shut off on me when driving it. The passenger side leaks water so i thought that the ecu was bad so i got another one today and it started but was idling at 2000rpm and then it shut off as soon as i reversed. The car had been sitting for a couple of months but it ran fine the first day i drove it and after the compression test it basically wouldnt run. I dont know if i fucked up the firing order but after checking it several times it is 1,3,4,2 and it still wouldnt run..Any help would be appreciated.thanks ahead of time.

if you are getting oil in the spark plug towers then most likely the valve cover seals for the spark plug towers are bad. buy the valve cover gasket kit and replace all that shit. i know i had a problem where mine werent sealing right and one of the cylinders would misfire because of oil in the tower.

you need to replace these small grommits in the passanger vent/heater vent. go to http://www.g2ic.com/tegtips/interior/15.html for how to fix it....

It's good logic that says if it has a problem AFTER you worked on it that it is something you did...re-check that you have the wires all the way on the plugs and you didn't foul a plug. After trying to run it, pull them all to see if any are wet (not firing).

Good luck.

well after you fix it they don't leak, only a jack ass would let it leak... but then again when your blower motor freezes, and you have to spend $300 to get a new one you will recomend to other to fix their leak before shit breaks.

only a jack ass pays 300 bucks for a blower motor.


when there 35 bucks with a life time warrenty and take 30minutes to change.

Dont try to clown me, i havnt fixed it...ive tried to silicone it didnt help, my wiper cowl isnt tight to my windshield so that doesnt help. I put the car cover on when it rains, problem solved.
