Leaking distributor - 1995 astina

lliw · 14-07-2013, 01:15 PM

Hi,

I have an astina with the newer style coil in the distributor.

I have a leaky distributor. I just pulled it off, expecting it to have an o-ring but there isn't one and there appears to be no o-ring grove.

How does it seal?

I'm a little confused.

there has to be a grove for the seal. you took the dissy off? or you took the cap off?
