How do you stop oil leaking from oil filter on a 1984 Honda acord?

Remove the old filter. Replace it with a new filter. Before installing the new filter wipe the mounting surface clean and apply a coat of oil to the new oil filter's gasket. Spin on the filter and tighten it 3/4 turn after it makes contact with the mounting surface. No, more and no less. If you still see oil leaking from the filter then look above the filter for the leak. Possibly valve cover is leaking.


Why would oil leak around a new oil filter?

There are several reasons your filter may leak. It might be the wrong filter. Did you oil the gasket before installing it. Did you over torque it (more than 1 turn after contact). Did you make sure the old oil gasket wasn't still on the engine block before installing the new filter. Could be a defective filter(bad gasket). In any case, better replace it to be safe, filters aren't supposed to leak. Better spend 3 to 4 bucks now than 3000 bucks later on a rebuilt engine.

Why does your washer smell like rotten eggs when draining?

My guess is - water that is still sitting inside the inner parts starts to drain as the load is beign drained. Maybe run an empty cycle with bleach in it. Just a thought. There is a product called Smelly Washer that will take the smell out of your washing machine.
