I've been having problems with my D15B7 dizzy, when I pulled it apart I found oil inside the housing of the dizzy. This caused my ignitor to fail. I rebuilt the dizzy using parts from other spare dizzy's I had lying around, but the oil leakage problem continues.

I need to identify if anyone here has had a problem with oil leaking INSIDE their dizzy before. I've inspected the spare parts dizzy that I have, and noticed that there are 2 oil leads that go into the bottom housing of the dizzy, to lubricate the mainrotorshaft right before it hits the cam.
The O-ring gasket has been replaced, and is used to keep oil from seeping to the OUTSIDE of the dizzy, I'm certain that is not the problem.
Has anyone had this problem before? and any suggestions of solving it?

 

Replace the o ring on the distributor maybe. Thats about the only way i can think oil would get into it

 

Replace the seal inside the distributor. To do that, You have to remove the distributor shaft and there's a black seal. oil is leaking from there.

 

Modifiedmcs, would you happen to know where I can get that seal? They don't sell it at honda, also, what is the process of replacing it, I removed it on one of my spare dizzys and it has like a ring with a spring enclosed inside the seal... it seems complicated. When I removed it, it came out all warped.
