its most likely the dist. o-ring seal as mentioned above. Change it before the valve cover gasket.

Consider the O-ring that same as "Tracker Dues". Here's a few more:

Your dome light is too small and too dim, but it doesn't work anyway, so #1 & #2 are moot.

You have pulled the bulb in your Check Engine light or have achieved the Zen of actually finding the damn switch and flip it back the other way every once in awhile.

You love the smell of mold

You are still looking for the pygmies who will actually fit in the back seat

(OK, y'all have at it...)
