H22
 

I have a 92 accord with a h22 swap. But to me it seems like it just eats oil up like crazy. I have no leaks so idk where it's going . I use vtec pretty often. Sometimes. . And I'm using Mobil 1 full synthetic.With about a week it goes down. Any one got a clue as to why I'm using so much oil. . And just did the oil change last weekend. And motor just hit a lil over a 1000 since the swap

It sounds like its just burning it are the rings bad?

How many miles are actually on the motor?

The motor has less than 30,000 motor was imported

The swap was done maybe 2 months ago now

ditch the mobile 1.

What kind of oil shoul i use then

Pennzoil............maybe Valvoline. Any smoke ?

How much oil are you using to fill it up ? 5 quirts won't fill it .... H usually burn oil espcially if your hitting vtec a lot

No smoke at all . And i juss did the oul change with 5 quarts.

5 quarts doesn't fill it it takes another quart on top. Then vtec burns oil like all Honda motors . Where did you get your motor from

I had it imported from a shop in las vegas. And had it put in there to

Compression test the engine. After you test it dry, retest with pouring maybe a teaspoon of oil in the cylinder. If it raises the compression then you most likely have bad rings.

How do i tell if my rings are still good?

Smoke, sputtering, rev needle acts crazy, etc. The type and color of the smoke is an easy way of noticing it and 100% a compression test will suffice.

How come?
It is what they use at the dealer after all...

I'm not a fan of waxy pennzoil. Valvoline I suppose, but I normally run Quaker State, or Mobil1

I would say use Valvoline ..... Stay away from Pennzoil that stuff gunks up .....
