Today I replaced my distributor in my 92 eg (d15b7). Before it was leaking and I had a spare gasket, so I swapped the gaskets and ordered a new distributor since the old one was cracking. Fast forward to today I installed the new one and at first all was good but then after a test drive oil was leaking under the distributor and I was wondering if maybe the gaskets need to be broken in or if there may be something else wrong.


hope someone can help me

First pull that distributor back out and inspect the o-ring, make sure it didnt walk out of the groove. THEN check the bore that the distributor goes in and make sure it isnt gouged out/damaged. then check your distributor o-ring to make sure it has sealing pressure when inserted, use engine oil as lube for installation, no dry installs. if all that checks out, pull the distributor cap to see if the oil isnt coming in past the inner bearing seal.
