Little over a week ago I bought a 95' 4runner, V6 3.5L, 4WD, automatic transmission with 115,000 miles on the odometer. The previous owner told me that he had the head gaskets and timing belt replaced about 20,000 miles prior and new tires..etc... I test drove it and had my father, who is somewhat of a mechanic but not enough to have me asking questions elsewhere, inspect it and figured for the price it was a good buy. I was noted by the previous owner that it had a SLIGHT oil leak which I stupidly shook off as merely a quick fix. Now it's 6 days later and i'm experiencing drastic oil leaks and a rough idle which runs about 500RPM at a stand still. I am a poor college student and don't have the extra 1-2k to fix it if it's a major problem, please help!
