i told ya to put some of that stuff into the pan threads and on the bolt threads and then tighten it.... you just did a gum patch.... nothing to hold it inplace that way....

but o well... just be sure to go to your honda dealer as well and buy a new oil pan seal...

^ yea, my tire guy (also does oil changes, but i use him mainly for tires) did mine a few times, twice before my mom gave it to me, and once when i was in town and didnt have time to mess with it. He forgot the crush washer so i had a little seepage...do you know off hand about how much they are? i should prolly go buy one. no bigge, but basically, every one makes mistakes, i told him about it and hes like "what, those damn hondas have crush washers, man, im really sorry, i guess i just didnt notice it" i was like "dude, calm down, no biggie, i just tightened it a little more, and no leaks or anything....just warnin ya, next time you get a honda, check for washers...lol" hes a good guy, owns his shop and treats his customers like family, after i meet him, i realised why my family goes to him with their stuff.
( you guys wanting to start a buisness take note ^^^^^)
