tech wrench Oil Leak, Replace all gaskets?

My 92 Integra RS is leaking oil pretty steadily as of today , would it be best to replace all the gaskets? If so, where can I get a full kit, and what would a mechanic charge to do this job / would it be feasable enough to do on my own? Thanks again for your help guys! Love the SH community!

If you don't know where it's leaking from, then do all of them.

you should get the kit from honda. It's worth the money, they WON'T leak after installing them. A lot of ebay and generic-auto pars kits are garbage. And get it checked at your garage, it might be an easy gasket you can do yourself.

As far as mechanic price, it all depends on what you need to change. If you have to change your oil pump and crank seals, that will cost you. If its just valve cover /oil pan, its much cheaper. If its cam seals, it's not too expensive, but they'll recommend valve cover gasket anyways, and oil pan gasket for oil pump seal. Crank seal requires removing the tranny, clutch and flywheel. $$$ Getting them all done will cost you a lot.

Changing them yourself is definitely feasable just requires some know-how experience(except the valve cover and oil pan gaskets, fairly simple). If you've never done this before than valve cover and oil pan gaskets is as far as you should go.
