Bryan if your asking if the WP can be rebuilt there is really nothing to rebuild. You pull it out, pull all of the 10s out if it, put the new one in(blue lock tight the threads) and re-install. All that comes out is the front plate which holds the Impellers, and I don't think you could rebuild them(maybe but by the time you were done I bet it would cost you more than just buying a new JAPANESE one.

no, I meant the distributor.  i still have a genuine bosch unit, and you were the one that called it out when we were working on my car...."dude, hate to break it to ya, but your dizzy is leakin..." i think were your words...

I did not put it in. I had my friend do it. And he did tell me if I were to ever install one myself to lube it up. I watched him do it. I will have him check it when I go down south next weekend. But the leak appears to be coming from inside the distributor. Not the base of it. But I could be wrong. I will have him check it next weekend unless you were gonna show up at the tune up Todd. Then I could have you check it. Like I said. I don't want to take it off myself. I'm sure I could. But I don't want to haha.

After going over to Bryan's the other day, This is what my car looks like now. I got the wheels after I left Bryan's. I traded off some wheels I had laying around here for the wheels that are on it now. Bryan helped me out with the headlights by donating a good core support as the one I had was mangled a bit.  I really appreciate all the help he gave me. Thanks again Bryan!

It will look even nicer when I respray the bumpers and trim with that trim black paint haha. Will be a good project in the next month or two. I want to replace the red strip in the bumpers as well. That badged grill is growing on me. But I think I will prefer a badgeless one more still anyways.
