oil in the distributor cap
 

Hey all, I have been trying to track down an oil leak in my 92 honda Accord. I thought it was leaking from the spot where the distributor bolts to the engine block, so I replaced the outer rubber seal on the shaft that goes into the engine block. Now I noticed that there was oil inside the distributor cap. Do I have to replace the entire distributor ($150) or is there a rubber seal on the shaft inside the distributor that I can replace by taking the distributor apart? Thanks for any help on this.

Pretty sure the 4th gens do have a seal that can be replaced. Note you will have to take the whole thing apart to get to it. Also will require some research to get the seal, you will not find it at a local store so be sure to have the new one before begining the work.
