I have a 95 civic dx d15b7. just bought it september last year. recently been finding little things wrong as time goes by and have a couple question.
1. Oil leaking from distributor/ head. the car has a choppy idle and i think some oil is getting it to it (distributor). I know i need a new one. what else should i look for or replace when doing this.
2. the car has a manual steering rack. I believe it is bad too. i had it aligned a couple time but still pulls to the right. I checked it out the other day and found that the inner/outer tie rods are fine and the seal/bushing on the right side shaft on the rack is bad, i think. is there any one that has a good one or know of a simple way to fix it.
3. my water temp is all messed up. im not for sure whats going on with it. i can tell you that during the winter, i would go let it warm up and then when i would get in i would turn the heater on the 1 or 2 setting and by the time i got a couple blocks away from my house the temp gauge would go right back down to the cold mark. Is this hurting anything? Would a new thermostat fix this? if not what should be done.
Thanks for any and all help in advance. i can give more info if needed to help figure any thing out.
