oh god please stop asking all these questions...you should have asked them all at once in one question.



if you have OIL inside your distributor cap it is only a matter of time before it destroys the ignitor much less the electrical contacts inside.



that or the o-ring seal will fail completely and any oil that contacts that surface while the engine crankcase is pressurized, will be forced outside the engine. you do the math.How long can i drive with a leaking distributor cap?
distributor caps don't leak....what is leaking out of it? there's an oil seal but that is on the distributor shaft not the cap, and to change that you need to pull the distributor out to replace it.How long can i drive with a leaking distributor cap?
Take the cap off, wipe it out, spray a little silicon spray into the cap, put it back on. The only way you will have trouble is if you power wash the motor or drive under water!How long can i drive with a leaking distributor cap?

The only way a distributor shaft inner seal can leak is from the crank case pressurizing and forcing oil up through it.



Check you crank case breather, and PCV valve.How long can i drive with a leaking distributor cap?
