iPlod999 143 1 Cars Posted October 30, 2013 I am just about to refit my 4th shredded O ring inbetween my distributor and camshaft. I always put a bit of oil on the ring before sliding in and tightening up. Why does it keep shredding? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iPlod999 143 1 Cars Posted November 1, 2013 Cheers for the replies people. 1st 2 were purchase from the Bay and stated 'original'. Once I found out they were half the price and still avaliable from the main dealer last one was from there. I now have another dealer purchased one and will refit in the morning. I'll have a good look inside and have a good clean up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
