where is the minor leak? Main seal? that is a big job. The 4l should run smooth listen for any tapping. also look under the door when open for rust etc. and look at frame. Jeeps can rust pretty easily I think more do to condition they are driven in then jeep quality.

I would run from a $500 vehicle, check it out good before you make a decision, I just paid $2200 for my 95 and still had to do some stuff to it.
