If it's really urgent and it is a crack or small pinhole leak- dump  
about two tablespoons of ground pepper into the expansion tank or  
(quicker) via one of the radiator hoses.  Alternatively, you can add  
egg white.

Yes, I'm serious.  You may even be pleasantly surprised at how long  
the repair holds up.
