Oil leaks

Post by isettakurt »

I'm starting to notice more oil drips than normal under the ol' Coupe.
I'm hoping the car is just marking its territory, but it appears the
motor is starting to reject its oil transplant, little by little.
What's the most likely source of the leak(s)?
Where should I start tightening bolts, and/or replacing gaskets first?

You say you just changed the oil and now it's starting to leak? Perhaps you
installed the O-rings around the filter incorrectly or off-kilter in some
way? Maybe try wiping down all the leaky parts, take it for a drive, look
for the new markings and report back.
