I feel the same way, and I live near one of the largest cities in the world - and I NEVER see any MX-3's!
But, I am not moving to Canada - its too cold for me here and I can imagine how much worse it is up there - lol

Re: Common oil leak on a 1994 MX-3 4cyl?
Well, I JUST got done with the valve cover, I will wait a couple days and report back and let you know that it is not leaking any longer (I hope)
Anyway, I met some really cool people (not in person, yet, but I will for sure!) through this forum, and I think I fixed my oil issue - so ... Thanks!![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)

Re: Common oil leak on a 1994 MX-3 4cyl?
I am hoping that is NOT it - the oil is on top of that spot, at least I know for sure that the valve cover gasket needs to be done first, then I will re-re-clean it off and see what it looks like - pretty sure its just a valve cover though, no way oil is shooting up a foot into the air to cover the ...

Re: Common oil leak on a 1994 MX-3 4cyl?
Actually, I think it is still leaking now, but in the next couple days I should have the valve cover done, and then I will re-spray it down and clean it all off, let it dry a day, and hopefully I will be done. Why did yours still leak after doing the O-ring and the Valve cover - did you ever get it ...

Re: The newest guy from the Chicago area - already wrenchin' ...
That is exactly it - and I did pay the whole $1600 too - mostly because after my research, and lurking on this site for a couple weeks, I noticed that this is a special car, not too many out there, and it shares a lot of parts with a couple other cars, so it was a chance to own a car that will cost ...

That would be the one - do you know this car more than I do already? Yes, welcome to the club! Glad you're already getting some wrench time on the mx. And yes, stupid place for the oil filter, or.... stupid place for the exhaust. :lol: Oooo, where'd you happen to find your mx? It isn't by chance thi...

The newest guy from the Chicago area - already wrenchin' ...
So, I bought this car on Saturday and here is what I have done so far: Distributor oil seal (when I bought it for $1600 USD, I think I got it cheap because it had a major oil leak - lol) Oil change with filter (what a b---- of a place to put that thing!) Fuel filter (yeah, that was fun too) Basic in...
