2002 Honda Civic Questions & Answers
2002 Honda Civic EX 1.7. Most common issue with it.
The origin of the leak may be oil spilled form the Valve cover gasket job. With a warm, not hot engine, spray with degreaser and hose off the oil and cleaner. Leave to dry. Run car for a couple of days and check again.
Yes replacing the gasket should fix it as long as it isn't warped. Civics tend to get thrashed by young drivers, so you may need to get the head skimmed at a machine shop.

Hi Bernie Well it sounds like something you have done during the repair. There is no miracle fix i can offer,unfortunatley. 1st of all as you have an engine light on you need a code reader to see what has turned the engine light on. You can obtain one of these at a reasonable price from any good car accessory shop or on line. These units are always handy to have. Once you have made a note of any engine codes that has been set clear the codes. Once codes have been cleared try vehicle again it may have sorted problem, if light comes on again read code is it the same as before. look in area of the discription given possibe a sensor not connected properly wiggle test connector,is there another connector close that may have got mixed up and connected to the wrong sensor? You also mentioned timing are you absolutley sure all timing marks were in possition when setting the timing? Are there any pinched wires on engine harness any loose or disconnected earth wires in areas where you have worked. At the end of the day you have to re-check every thing you have touched/ altered. Good luck
I have a honda civic type r (2002) the engine
its best to change cam and crack sensors at the same time, but as for removing engine to change belts thats a no there is a plate in the wheel arch that needs removing to gain access. removing the wheel and you will see the plate that needs removing. belt change is not hard to do. if the cam sensor has failed and replaced and still a fault then its not this at all that is the problem. you can get a false code, and resetting it and running engine to see if it comes up again. also if the garage is using the right equipment it will be able to diagnose a run test this will tell you the full state of the problem so you don't waste money replacing every single part. a failed Maf sensor on some models can make a cam sensor fail as its linked, and that usually just needs a clean with MAF cleaner, this people change the air filter and forget about the sensor. the muck ats on the air filter can get thought to the sensor and give a false reading. also when a part is replaced the ecu needs to be reset or it will say engine faults any were up 60 starts of the engine. so i would have this done. hope this helps. plus if belts lose you would know while running the engine it will squil or make strange sounds. i would recommend another garage if you are going to this one. use a recommended garage, or a garage specialised to you vehicle. changing parts as they think will cost you more money in the long run. good luck with your repair.
2002 honda civic ex won't start
If a defective spark plug was found, it can destroy the secondary winding in the coil pack for that plug. Change the plug wires too.
