Hi there, I have 1998 Nissan Pulsar CJ-1 Sedan with GA15DE engine 1.5ltr. I have a oil leak around the distributor. what needs to be done? does it have some sort of seal that needs changing? If you could help me out on this would be much appreciated. Thanks

If the leak is from outside the distributor, replacing the O'ring after pulling out the distributor is all you need to do. however if the leak is from within the distributor, that would require disassembling the distributor to replace the oil seal within it.
