I have a 1991 Honda civic hatchback and it leaks oil between the distributor and the engine it seems like . I tried putting new head gasquet . But nothing works.

first have to solve the problem the check engine light will tell you what's wrong by diagnosing the problem have to get the trouble code and find what causing it google.com has few guys posted how to diagnose this and find the source of the problem. might be concern on gas fuel filter clogged, or injector are also clogged,

I would try to have the transmission flushed and filled with new transmission fluid for about $100 or so. If this doesn't solve the problem, a rebuild is indicated, if you plan on keeping the car. Or, you could alternatively buy a used transmission that fits your engine and car combination, that doesn't have this problem.

Good luck on this repair.

Bottom of engine, near center at back of pan. Maybe this will help

dear friend-i do not think the oil comes from the hear gasket but rather from the distributor,make sure that the oil is not running down onto the head gasket and the shows as a oil leak from the gasket.

SOUND LIKE ENGINE IS FLOODING. FUEL INJECTORS IS LEAKING FUEL WITH ENGINE OFF.TRY FILLING GAS TANK UP.AND PUT A BOTTLE OF FUEL INJECTION CLEANER IN GAS TANK DRIVE AROUND A LITTLE SO THE CLEANER CAN CLEAN INJECTORS.

In the hot weather I would use 5/30, but since its going to be winter soon, use 10/30

Is it an automatic? If so, you have a leak, in the trans. cooler, that is inside your radiator. Therefore, you need a new radiator

hey my civic just did the same thing, there was no spark but would still turn over. all it was, was the fuse for the starter cyllanoid, so try that under the steering wheel.

One psooibility to this is that there was insufficient oil going to the cam bearings and the camshaft seized. The oil galleries in the head could be plugged therefore not supplying oil to the cam bearings.
There is a posibility that the valves are not bent but you would have to check them carefully. that could be checked out when thw head is machined because if the cam seized you'll have to take the head off and have it serviced.( cam bearing seats machined and oil galleries cleared. Hope this helps you out

try checking the main relay
