Oil leak from inside distributor - ED Civic

pull your distributor off and check the O ring on the end, this seals the oil in from the top of the engine

I bought dizzy O rings at Peter Warren (Warwick Farm) for Toyota Camry 89 (3SFE) and Toyota Starlet 98 (4EFE) only around $4 each. Both of them have problem with oil leak from dizzy. It's easy DIY to change dizzy O ring. Just Before you take out the dizzy remember to mark the position of the dizzy and the engine block (use ruler or some thing sharp to mark the line) otherwise you have to adjust timing. Also note the position of rotor.
