Default :? still leaking afte new distributor?

I just put a new distributor and its still leaking. Any one that could help would be very appreciated. I have a d15b v-tec. First i tried a new d16z6 distributor and it still leaked. Then i tried a 1.5 vtec one and it didnt even line up with the bolts. It leaks right under the distributor where ther is a little screw. PLEASE HELP???????????

Buy a new O-Ring and then come up with a more original name... That one just sounds very familiar

mini me swap - i've replaced my o ring on my distributer and still it leaks. from talking with John at LHT there is a good chance it might be from my compression ratio. he mentioned a few fixes that i may try.

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.

is there any story leading up to the dist leaking ,like you just put a cam in or cyl head repair? make sure there isnt any sealent where the oring rides . the factory uses it under that end cap to prevent oil leaks. the other option is the oil is leaking between that cap and the head. ????

No Story... I just put in a mini swap and the dizzy just leak right under where there is a little screw but leaks real bad. I think it might be the pressure because i read up on it and it says to take out a oil jet or somthing so im gonna try that Runs real good though.
