SteveMB6 Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Yeah piston rings for definate. I used 18 litres of oil in 6k miles before it was fixed.Its a day job really, me and a mate started at 9am and finished at 9pm. I would expect to pay around £250-£300 for labour alone.Gasket kit is £100 from part supplier (not oem Honda)Piston rings are £55 delivered from a guy on the ITR forums who rebuilts vtecs and races them.Here is a link to the thread - http://www.itr-dc2.com/forum/viewtopic. ... highlight=Then obviously you need new oil/oil filterWhile the head is off you should get the Valve Stem Oil Seals replaced too. They should come with the gasket kit.edit - oh and you may as well get a new timing belt on when building it all back up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
