I've read that this is probably the easiest oil leak fix on the 4.0L. It looks easy, too - IF I just could get that Torx bolt to break free.
On my XJ it is very close quarters between the Torx and the fender well, so I can't use the socket. I've shot the bolt and adapter housing with PB for days, finally found a T-60 Torx that will work (removing the hex stock from the socket), put a cheater on the end of the wrench, and so far have managed only to strip a Craftsman wrench.
After buying the O-rings, taking several days to locate a Torx, I have been visiting my engine every evening for a few minutes of levering and re-spraying with PB. Is there some secret technique to breaking the Torx loose?
I was so looking forward to doing away with that cardboard under the car...
As always, thanks for any help.
