Whats up everyone, about a month ago i bought an 89 Accord lx-i 5 speed coupe. Im using it as my daily driver and its a fun little car. However, I think the motor just went. The antifreeze is mixing with the oil (I think its the head gasket). Another thing is, Oil is coming out the exhaust! Im looking for someone in New York, like an accord specialist that can guide me towards getting my car running again. Perhaps an engine swap, Legit and reliable person please... I've been searching the forum, but nothing yet. Any help is appreciated.

I dont think there are any active members on here that are from new york. But all of the repair manuals and all of the info you need will be in this forum. If you have some mechanical background/necessary tools you should be able to do most of the work yourself. And then leave only the difficult parts to a shop. You can probably remove the head yourself to save some $ and then just have a mechanic install it and do your timing.

Thanks man, not a bad idea. Im just worried about the oil spitting out the exhaust. It has me thinking that my problem is not just a head gasket.
