Hello All,

I apologize for not being as avid as a user as I had expected to be when I first got my 95 ST. Lack of money and being a pretty diligent college student my time for my Celi has been limited. On top of the major set back of the semester: getting my first three tickets ever, in one sitting, one stop sign away from my housing by an undercover DB total $342 (rant can be posted if you guys would like to hear about it...lol) =/ But I've been working really hard and have a little bit of money to take care of quick and easy issues and mods for now.

But on to my actual issue. I've been having a bit of an oil leak problem. Thankfully a have a master mechanic of a neighbor that helped me narrow it down to it being my distributor. He is so savvy that he told me to find a specific seal that I cannot quite find online. I'm pretty sure it is the "inner shaft seal" for the distributor that I've read a little about already. I will also be getting the standard O Ring for the distributor which should be easy to find, order, and replace from what I've read.

I would really appreciate any heads up on this inner seal matter and if anyone knows where I might be able to find it?

-Otto

Two O-rings on the distributor -- a gasket between the cap and distributor as pictured, another around the shaft where it is inserted into the head. The inner shaft seal is a third part, and when it leaks oil makes its way into the distributor internally.
