Usually if it is a double gasket issue it will show itself right away... This took almost a week to happen. But thanks for the info.

FYI: I had a fram filter on my R and it blew up internally, the spring inside the filter couldn't handle the awesomeness of VTEC and the spring blew out and created a bunch of problems. Don't ever buy a Fram filter, biggest pieces of shit! It's worth the extra $5 to buy the Mobil 1 or something of that nature. Sorry to hear about the s2k.

My dad did and now hes feel really bad it wasnt double gasketed. Theres a possibility that it wasn't on tight enough or just the filter blew. But whatever happened it took a week to do.

Oh thats no good, tell him its just a car, and can be replaced, not a persons life. You always have to remember things happen for a reason. Maybe if that didnt happen something WORSE could have happened 2 days later and that would have sucked more!

yup, could have happened right after he changed it, but it didn't, so it could have been something else
