Been having some oil leaks. From what seams to be around the solenoid. So I did a little research and this is a common problem.Order some gaskets from ebay and in they went.
Apparently all the solenoids use the same gasket.
Took half an hour to swap.
I didn't have any torque settings. But being a gasket I always slowly do up the bolts in three stages.
I rubbed some oil on the gasket to help it compress.
I pulled the solenoid and shaft apart and gave it a clean with degreaser.
Three bolts to remove it from the block and a couple cables to take off.
Oil pressure switch i believe is one, the other is the solenoid control and the other is a clip holding the bracket for the ignition leads.

Goddam she was dirty, no wonder there were issues.
According to the OEM Packets:
15825-P08-005
36172-P08-015
Gave the surface a clean, remove any debris
I believe this metal spacer is for an oil feed?
Remove it to get to the shaft n spring.
And after the civic service. On to the Z27AG for some rewiring.
