I bought a 1990 Galant in February from a friend of mine who actually works for a Mitsubishi dealership for $1000 (part of that money was to pay for a valve job). Since I don't know much about cars, I assume that the work was done correctly.
When I accelerate, I hear clattering noises, and I have an oil leak problem somewhere in the front. I have to add a quart of oil at least once a week to keep the oil light from coming on when I brake. I was wondering if I should take the time to have him check it out, or if I could just use an engine oil stop leak product to take care of this. I really won't have the extra money to get it fixed professionally for another couple of months, so I was wondering if I could get any suggestions for my hubby for do-it-yourself repairs.
I'm sorry that I don't have more information regarding the location of the leak, but if it is needed, I can get more information. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
