Leaking inside - oil in in the cap and on the bottom when cap is off.
What are my options with pros/cons. Thanks a lot! |

there is a seal internally. Im pretty sure it can be rebuilt but its not easy. Sometimes its just easier to replace it. I might have a distributor, what year?

Good luck finding the seal or a rebuild kit. Youre probably going to have to dissassembly the distributor and pull out the seal, then take it to a parts store and match it up with something they have in stock. I believe the camshaft position sensor(pickup) is removable once you take the coil and rotor off. I cant remember how the distributor shaft is connected though but I know I was able to fully disassemble one a few years back.
