The dist is leaking oil, is it possible to change the seal on it? I don't know which seal it is. The oil is comming through the dist and leaking out the cap. Has anyone ever had this problem before, if so how did you fix it? If it matters, it's a 93 1.5L Non Vtec.

Thanks in advance.

 

Wow, leaking out of the cap? Thats a really bad seal... yes the seal is cheap, you can buy it at any parts store. Make sure its for the right distributor though.

 

So I would just have to replace the o-ring as seen here...?

 

yes

 

The more I look at that pic I don't think that o-ring would help. That o-ring seems like it would keep oil from leaking between the head and the dist., but I'm getting oil in the dist. itself.

 

beats the hell outta me.. i just replace the oring and see what happens or take apart that ---- and see where else it could be getting in. i've never ripped apart a dizzy but if i get chance i'll look at my old one tonight to see if i can figure it out for you

 

Thanks
