Default 1990 Civic DX Oil Leak and check engine light

I have a 90 Civic DX with an oil leak. I put in a gasket under the distributor and changed out the gasket under the valve cover. The oil is still leaking. Are there any other gaskets or anything else that I could change out to find the leak?

Also, I have a check engine light that comes on every time I drive after about 4 miles. The engine computer does not hold its codes so it is gone every time I turn the engine off. I do not have an OBD1 scanner to find this so how can I do this?

Thank you

Look at the sticky on top of the forum page for how to check your code, or you can get it checked at AutoZone for free. Id recommend checking for a leak under the car, that's where its most likely leaking, and go from there.
