I replaced the distributor o-ring a couple of weeks ago. I just checked today and it looks like it's still leaking. Has anyone encountered this? If so, what did you end up doing?

There was a thread about this on mr2oc a while back. basically its a common flaw, and most people solve it by getting a second thinner oring from the hardware store that actually seals itself against the head. I think I just doubled my new ring up with the old one to fix it. You just have to be careful when you tighten the dist back on because its possible to crack it with another oring on there.
