demented6's Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 My civic has this weird odor after I cut it off. It smells like oil and gas mixed burning. Any Ideas? My secound questions is my car won't turn over all the way sometimes. I have to cut the ignition to on like six times, before it will crank.

SamLach Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 Probably bad piston rings if you are burning oil....is there blowback? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crxtacy Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 The smell.Check the valve cover area for any seepage of oil running down and possibly burning on the exhaust.If it is, replace the valve cover gasket . As for you second question , whats it doing ? doesn't do nothing when you turn the key ? It only clicks when turning the key ? Or it just cranks ? Don't understand your question clearly .

demented6's Posted July 6, 2007 Author Share Posted July 6, 2007 Sorry, I haven't Replied. My brother thinks my throttle position sensor is going out. What effect would that have? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
