Fix the problem then change the oil… Then drive like normal. It’ll clean itself out:)
My engine is full of oil/coolant mixture. What would you recommend I use or do to get it all out..including the heater core.
hey mike would it be possible for u to make a vid on replacing oil pump for a d16y8 it would help me out alot thanks for all the help u can help me with..
A 95 lx is very similar to this engine so you shouldn’t have a problem! Have fun…
hey mike I think your the best person that can help me.. Can you show to me how to change my head gasket in my Honda Civic 1995 LX 4dr.. Thanks Mike
thanks for the video
i like the song in background what does it call
Paint supply or auto parts stores should have it … If you can’t find it gasoline will work!
I used Bars Leak permanent head gasket repair, now I wanna actually replace the head gasket ( used the repair over a year ago) did i mess the engine up?
hey where can i find enamel reducer cant seem to find iit anywhere please help
Hey Rando, I get that question quite a bit… and the answer is enamel reducer. I actually put it in the vid right at the beginning but I think most miss it..Ya the Y7 is pretty much the exact same steps for the replacement. Good Luck
Hi Mike. Thanks for the vid on head remove and replace. What liquid did you use to clean the piston tops? My daughter’s engine is as Y7 but this vid is perfect. Thanks again.
Maybe some are…but I haven’t came across any. If they are rolled then you’ll have a lot of resistance and material being removed when trying to clean the threads.
Arent head bolts rolled threads instead of straight cut u need a certain tap and die correct??
Thanks for the videos! I am getting ready to Turbo my y8 and I’m gonna go ahead and replace the head gasket and install arp headstuds before I install the Turbo. Your videos have given me the confidence to do this.
I love the music. Can you give me exact name of the song in your video?
thanks.
Ain’t nobody got time fo dat!
jk
I hear ya. Much appreciated. I don’t precautionary do it unless I know the motor will be under a HEAVY amount of stress (constantly). Though I feel most people if you asked them wouldn’t even know what the hell a straight edge is, none-the-less anything about checking the flatness. Hell, I’ve had 2 different people who didn’t know each other say that they believe warped heads are a myth!
All these steps are pretty generic for changing any head gasket. but the model specific stuff like torque pattern and specifications or whether or not you’ll have to remove the cam on a K20 I’m not to sure of. You’ll want to have a repair manual with you as your doing this job anyway. As far as doing it yourself…..that is up to you! You might have problems but since you did it yourself, you can just redo it for little cost:) good luck
Is this similar to replacing a head gasket on a k20 civic si? thanks.. or should i take it to the dealer..? I never done this before.
Thank you!!! Im doing head gaskets on a Ford V8 and i was really confused with cleaning the mating surfaces!!!
not really sure what happened in this video, I was so intrigued by the music I forgot what I was doing….great video
good video, next time done use white font against a white background at the beginning 🙂

I mean not explain and tell me what tools I need
Hey I got a Honda civic94 and it needs a new head gasket and I got no tools and dont know anything about fixing a car can u explain what ur doing so I can have an idea
when putting the arp head studs what torque do you use on the bolts???
I have the same motor and im thinking about doing the head gasket would white foam in radiator be the cause of a blown head gasket i already flushed the coolant system ? and it also stays at a constant idle and the car jerks when in first gear.
Thanks man! Bout time for some new ones but need to get a new computer for rendering!
LOVE your vids man, great work
I’ve been waiting for this question! The answer is you have to take the belt off completely and rotate the crank and then use the factory timing marks to reposition everything. It’s not hard, just not included in this vid! Thanks for commenting:)
This is an excellent demonstration. How would you go about cleaning the piston heads that are at the bottom of their rotation?
Burning oil is more likely to be worn rings, broken ring lands, or worn valve guides. Although if the gasket is bad between the oil feed port and cylinder then that can allow oil into the cylinder which would cause white smoke in the exhaust. White exhaust “oil” black exhaust “gas/rich”. If your more than half a quart low when you change your oil then you are probably burning oil excessively. Thanks
whats the reason of changing the headgasket for? burns oil? i suspect my b16b burns oil, is it the gasket or how can i determine its really burning oil? thanks
Thank you as very informative even the slightly different motor. Going to do it tomorrow now and save over $1000.00 on doing it myself. I might swear at the manifold bollts/nuts thou 😉 Thank you
0:17 do you have bent valves look at 2 and 3 looks like you have got 2 bent valves and my car got same problem is that normal ?
If only everyone put this much effort and attention to detail in their trade…Nice job.
Hey man, nice vids. I have an 03 Civic EX that doesn’t look too different from your car… Are there any major differences that I may encounter? Also how long did this take you? And besides the oil, the replacement gasket, and the sockets, what utensils/fluids are needed for this job?
Thanks again for the vid, could potentially save me hundreds…
i think your head has a bad valve..right at the begining i can see a valve thats looks to be raised up higher then the rest
i could be wrong but just something to look for
oh ok thanks for the reply! wish me luck lol
Hi great video!!! Just a quick question, rite now i have a 92 integra with just a ls b18a1, preparing for a headgasket job, ive found instructions and tips everywhere and been noticing u need to take rocker arms apart and adjust valves, from wat i seen in ur vid u didnt took urs apart, is it necessary to do that or can i just take the head off with everything still on it?
Thanks for the great video. Where did you order the studs from?
How long with every thing would this all take?
is it okay to use a liquid sealant to the head gasket ???
Nice vid horrible song
