I didn't change my oil ONCE in the two years she had the Dseries in her. Then again, it burned enough oil that I didn't need to. lmfao. I miss my hatch!!!

yea.. idk dude.. just make sure it isnt burning to much oil. i had a 1990 integra. and the oil light came on. and i checked it. it as fine. two days later on the free way the engine blew.....mine in my ***... it had 207,000 miles on it. it needed cv boots. the ac didnt work. the clutch was going.. same thing you are ruinning into.. if you want to fix it all and rebuild the engine and ****.. you are going to spend a couple thousan. might as well save up 4000 and buy a 1998 civic like me!!!!! and sell your old.. you see these guys they say its just broken in.. and its fine. there are plenty of people on craigslist who would buy your ciivc if its clean.. put it up there see whaT happens.. but good luck, i wouldnt want some one else to end up on the free way with a blown engine

Maybe I used the wrong term re: buring oil..... But when I change the sparkplugs the 2nd from the left has oil in the hole. We changed the gasket twice and still the same thing.
I don't know much about cars... just the basics. I do check the oil to make sure its not low. And it does get changed every 3 months. When something breaks I try to get it fixed asap. But when several things start breaking down at once is it worth it for someone like me who doesn't do the work myself....to keep fixing it.
Thanks again for all the advice. I'll keep it atleast into next year and see what happens.

have you changed the spark plug oil seals in the valve cover, that would let oil in the spark plug hole, its a very cheap and quick fix.
