04’ cm870 air compressor keeps breaking

[Redland1]

Put on the new gaskets and still leaking.I’m out in Virginia and thinking of driving it back to the house in San Antonio and check the level every few hours.At least the mechanic I have back home won’t rip me off.Local dealer in Manassas Virginia quoted me $2600 to just take it off,put new gaskets and reinstall.Three weeks out.What do y’all think I should do?
