That sucks!

I always thought that Honda made the cleanest running engines! I was even
telling friends that I thought Honda was a higher quality engine then a
Toyota, because I have never seen a Honda with worn out valve guide seals.

Is this a low quality issue? I can see this happening with a Chrysler but
not a Honda!

Does this make you upset? After 140K I bet you have got over it.

Is the 98 Prelude burning oil? How is it driving?
