My winter car is a honda accord 1992 (no oil cooler).

I just changed my oil and filter and now there's a leak and it seems coming from the oil filter.

My question is, if the old gasket of the old oil filter still there (2 gasket). Ill be able to see it without taking of the filter? cause I look under the car and the filter seem to be sitting perfectly on the motor.

Another question, can an oil change make the oil sender start to leak??

I dont understand what is happening before there was no leak at all.. and now it leaking only when the car is running and right under the filter

Did you change the crush washer?

If the oil filter leaks oil, remove the oil filter. Clean out the rubber seal and wipe off the seat on engine block. Apply a light coat of oil to the new oil filter rubber seal. Install the filter. After the rubber seal seats, turn the oil filter 7/8 - 1 turn.

You do not have to change the oil or anything to remove the oil filter and check, so it is pretty easy to just take it off, make sure everything was clean and re-install it.
