i have an oil leak in my 94 accord (F22b1) im having trouble finding where its at and i was wondering what would be the first gaskets or seals to look at to find this leak..any and all peplys help...thanx

To find a leak, do this:

Put a big piece of cardboard under the car and let it sit overnight... THis will tell you the general area of the leak...

Wipe down you engine with rags and maybe some thinner in that general area... THis will remove crusted oil and that sorta sh*t...

run it for a couple of days and then get in there with a flashlight and mirror and i am pretty sure you will find it...

Take the car to a dealer and have them check the balancer shaft seal and oil pan gasket. The balancer shaft seals were known to leak. But its behind the timing belt cover. Oil pan is also ver comin.

It is probably a compound problem...

How much mileage do you have?

Are there any oil spots under you car when you park?

Blueish smoke coming out of your pipe?

use brake parts cleaner and clean up the dirty area. then use a can of desenex(footpowder) and spray it over the the area the drip will show up easily
