Re: No Start, still looking for problem, big mess. 700 1990

posted by  someone claiming to be David Hunter on  Fri Dec 1 12:28 CST 2000 [RELATED]

If oil is inside the distributor then the internal oil seal is bad. I don't think that replacing either of the O rings visible when you pull the distributor will correct a leak to the distributor insides. I have heard of sources for this seal but cannot remember where.

It would be important to know if you have spark at coil. This will tell you if problem really is in the distributor or not.

Good luck
