mykep83 Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 ok first post, i have a 93 del sol i belive that it is not the same motor that came with i have a b16y7. now i have been using shucks to order some pans for it. the pan has two different u shape bends in the pan. it seems that every new one i order is having a huge fitment issue i can get all of them in place but the bolt on the back right side(starring top down) it seems to be more than a quater inch off. any help would be awesome on this matter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmgogo Posted January 20, 2010 Share Posted January 20, 2010 um no such thing as a B16Y7, so im going to assume you mean D16Y7, which is a non-vtec SOHC, OBD2 motor that came native in Civic DX, LX, CX, and VX as well as the 1996+ del Sol S. So 1/2 of your problem is the fact that you are probably ordering a B series oil pan for a D series motor. Goto schucks, and tell them you want an oil pan for a 1998 Honda Civic DX, that will fit with no problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DelSolSweetie Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 if its a 1.5 its going to be a d15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xeryon Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 They are similar but not that same. Just do as cmgogo suggested and order engine parts for a 98 civic dx. The engine your car would have come with stock is the d15b7. The majority of low end civics and del sols from 93-95 came with that engine. Lower model 96-00 civics and sols came with the d16y7. Someone would have swapped your motor previously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmgogo Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 A word of wisdom for you: When ordering parts for your car (non motor or transmission related) order them for 1993 del Sol S 1.5 SOHC Non-Vtec. When ordering parts for you engine order parts for a 1998 civic DX 1.6L SOHC Non-Vtec. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
