The leak is a real cheap fix, o-ring at the bottom. Get it from one of the vendors. If you have high mileage, while your are at it do the distributor o-ring as well. Beware though as it is not a regular round cross sectional o-ring it has a modified triangular shape to it. It's cheap too. Cheers, Dave C.
