Chasing oil leaks on my 225
got this here Mopar Delux and I'm trying to keep all the oil I put in it. just trying to gauge where I should start and so I ask the Mopar community. what are the most common oil leaks on a 1972 225? and which ones are the cheapest to do first?

If you have a rear mail leaking you might as well pull the motor and fix them all. Just be positive about the sorce of the leaks first…

I would say, If it has a lot of leaks, Just buy a gasket overhaul kit, Pull the engine out, Put it on an engine stand and go threw it and clean all the surfaces and install new gaskets and seals all the way around.
Check the engine compression before hand, just to make sure it is in good shape. And also check it for crankcase pressure, to make sure it is not excessive.

Before crawling under that make sure you have both an extra HD jack and stands or RR ties.

It definitely loves marking its territory, maybe ill start there. as much as I'd love to pull the motor on this thing, I currently don't have the time for that. I gotta keep it up and running too, she a workin girl.

There’s really no quick fix for oil leaks.
