I took mine off 5 times trying to find my oil leak i re did all my seals an thank you to man who made this video I f Finally fix my oil leak your the man for making this videos 🙏🤘😎
i just finished replacing the head gasket, timing belt, and water pump work on my 2001 Civic Ex coupe. replace most of the seal/gaskets that can leak (Cam seal both ends, crankshaft seal, and a complete Felpro head gasket with valve stem seal,,etc. after all this work eng oil change was due as well and noticed there was some oil leak just slightly above the oil pan near the lower timing cover area. I believe it is the oil pump O ring is leaking on my engine. I hope it is not too bad and the At-205 seal can fix this slow leak.
I just finished my head gasket this weekend. It is all fairly easy work, just so frustrating working on a 20 year old car worth $2000 with 228k miles. I just want to junk it but then I keep fixing it!
Great video! I thought my oil leak was coming from the cam or crankshaft seals but there were no signs of oil leaks there. I'm hoping the oil pump o-ring is the culprit
@@Gonefishing185 I replaced the oil pump o ring, oil pan and gasket, and the valve cover gasket and no signs of leaks after about 100 miles driven! I left my cam and crank seal in since they still looked relatively new from the last timing belt job
In most Hondas that I've had apart, the smaller circular gold-colored metal spacer just inside the cover is supposed to be installed in a specific direction. I'd guess that if it is not, that it might push outward on the cover, causing the pulley to rub against it. This is only my theory as a possible cause.
Originally my Crank Sensor bolt snapped inside of the hole it goes into.. I was so worried it was connected to the block and thank goodness it’s not. I also had my timing cover flapping around coated in oil exactly like this video.. smh
Sir i like your content, its very helpful hope you can share more idea/knowledge, sir can i ask the oil seals name you use and code also the 2 oil seal you use, is that rear & front camshaft oil seal?
I just changed the water pump and timing on my son 2005 civic the lower cover were melted just like your yes it got an oil leak too I change the cap and valve gasket but haven’t do the oil pan yet cause I have to take everything apart again to retiming it off 😤
I have mine all tore back apart replacing the head gasket now! Hopefully this is the last thing I need to do for a while. I'm am getting very familiar with this engine. Too bad it's only a Honda civic. No money to be made with this knowledge :(
Yes you should do this when changing timing belt. When I had my timing belt changed by a Honda tech he recommended it at that time and I had it done, however it only lasted 50k miles and was leaking again. Hopefully this time will last longer!
Your guide is greatly appreciated. My car had an oil leak from the pump, and I fixed it by replacing the o-ring.
👍👍

Thanks for the video I’ll be tackling this next weekend when I get the parts
How did it go?

Did you find it?
@@Gonefishing185 no haven't had the chance to get back to it
@@Supermario5231 I’m going in after that O-ring and the main seal, just waiting on a new timing cover! Let me know how yours goes, good luck!

Sir can you make content about oil shifter or oil selector, aixle oil seal etc. same model please
Thank you!

@@CarsandCoding I know it suck but we just have to be patient and keep working on it 😀
Very helpful video thank you, did it solve the problem, and or which seal was the bad guy, oil pump, O-ring, camshaft, seal, or the main front seal?
O ring was the main issue for sure! The rest were minor in comparison.
I wonder if this has been my same mysterious oil leak? Great hd filming.
Its late n dumb question, can this be done during a timing belt job then?
Yes you should do this when changing timing belt. When I had my timing belt changed by a Honda tech he recommended it at that time and I had it done, however it only lasted 50k miles and was leaking again. Hopefully this time will last longer!
You say there where no bolts but Im assuming you found them putting the loqer timing cover on
Yes the bolts were there :)
Is there torque specs for the oil pump?
Torque oil pump bolts to 11NM or 96 inch pounds.
