for some reason i think ive checked the fuel pressure, but its easy so ill check tomarrow. And i know the pre pump is running, id have a lot more problems if that pump was out, seeing as ive had this problem for 2 years now, just decided to get into it. I am curious though, i have seen oil in the distributor cause problems on other cars, will it effect this particular ignition system? I do know that the distributor does leak oil internally, even after replacing the shaft seal. I need a new distributor, but even after cleaing it out i still have the problem.
