The distributor is a new MP Electronic and has the proper O-Ring installed and is tight. Should there be a paper gasket at the base of the disributor? If so, does anyone have a part#? Thanks, Paul The O-ring should be sufficient in sealing the distributor base given it's in good shape and the proper size. Check the corner of the manifold for a possible leak source. There's really not that much oil that makes it up to the base of the distributor IMO.
