Where's that infamous oil leak at the back of the engine that seems to go around on the forum from time to time???

And... distributor O-ring is leaking...easy to do?

o ring is pretty simple, as far as the leak... start from teh bottom and work your way up till you find where it starts, pictures would help too wink.gif

I'm not leaking any oil on the ground at all...it must be happening when I'm driving and coming from the top end somewhere...so I would agree it's a valve cover issue. Car's going to the shop next week. Gotta take care of some suspension issues too. Thanks for the info on the seal!
