Today's patient is a B18B1 from a late 90's Acura Integra LS. This is a 1.8L DOHC 4 cylinder that makes 142hp and 127tq and can be found in 94-01 Acura Integra although there are many variants found in many other vehicles. The B series engines and many other engines from Honda/Acura during this period are why they have a reputation for being so reliable. That being said, it doesn't matter how good an engine is, if you don't maintain it, or maintain fluid level, it can be moments away from destruction. This engine died a frictionful, hot and painful death that could've been avoided. Hard to blame this type of failure on anything other than lack of maintenance.
Why am I doing this? I own and run a full service auto salvage business in the Saint Louis Missouri area called Importapart. Part of our business includes dismantling blown or core engines and salvaging the good parts to resell. We do not rebuild engines, merely supply parts to people who do!
