i own a civic lx 95

 

Is your engine burning oil and smoking from the exhaust? If not, check whether the engine oil may have leaked down through the spark plug seals in the valve cover.

 

i dnt think oil is comin from the top. cuz i checked the tubes they were dry and the seals also were dry. the oil is on the thread. like u said tomorow im gonna pay attention and smell the exhaust emission to see if it smells like burning oil, then ill tell u.
thk you

 

Are you losing engine oil or coolant?

One possibility is bad valve seals, though seeing oil on all four plugs is puzzling.

 

yeah its puzzling, it might be the valve seals wat do u think? do u have any clues? give me some tips that way i would try to do it. thank you

 

Are you losing or burning engine oil? Is bluish smoke coming from the exhaust while idling or during acceleration?

 

Tell ya exactly what it is....your valve cover O-RINGS. leaking into spark plug cavity.

oh sorry...after re-reading your post, you mention it being dry. Would have been the first thing I would have thought.

 

its ok my friend, im still tryin to figure this out lol, im falling in love with that civic lol dnt wanna let it go.
