After taking my 1985 XJ6 Series III for an inspection, my mechanic found a few leaks.

Oil Cooler hoses,Cam Cover Gaskets and Transmission cooler hoses. The fix for all three will require about 1 month before I am able to afford. Can anyone recommend a temporary fix until I can get repaired?

Any help would be appreciated!

 

Can't think of any temporary fixes.

One tip, though. Have your mechanic clean the breather screen and pipe. Chances are it's clogged.....which will increase crankcase pressure....which in turn can make engine oil leaks (pan gasket, rear/front main seal, cam covers) worse.
