When you park, place some cardboard under the engine and see if it leaked overnight...or something...

That's it? just see if anything leaked out of the motor by letting it sit overnight?

I guess...I'm not going to sit there and watch it drip.

Mine leaks a little because I'm so DAMN good at tapping my oil pan.

I talked to my buddy and he said that is not a leakdown test....he said you actually have to have equipment sort of like a CR test.

the best way to get a leakdown test is to take it to a shop. That way they can tell you EVERYTHING that might be wrong, and you have No doubt about it. Plus they've done it a million times and know what's up.
