The piece behind the oil filter is an oil cooler I believe. My 92 prelude had the same problem. There is a O ring behind the oil cooler. To remove the oil cooler, first remove the oil filter. Now follow the threads back on where the oil filter screws on, there should be a large bolt. The bolt on mine was pretty tough and required a large socket. I think I rented one from autozone, there are normally for removing drive axle bolts, don't remember the size though. Once the oil cooler is removed - replace the o-ring. There should be some lines that attach to the oil cooler that allow antifreeze to go through, but I don't remember if those had to be removed or not, it was about 8 years ago that I did this.

Where is the oil filter located on a 1991 Honda Prelude?

Answer using '87 PreludeFor my 1987 Honda Prelude 2.0 Si (fuel inj), the oil filter is located in the center of the engine compartment, behind the engine, between the engine and the firewall. To access mine, I have to reach from under the car, or, I prefer, access it from above by removing my air filter housing, and reaching behind and underneath the intake manifold. I like to put a light down there before I reach in so I can see what's happening. I can actually see the filter from above, by peering down through the openings in my intake manifold. Above my oil filter, there is a sensor that I am careful not to hit when working near it. Sincerely, Z-dog
