Drive shaft has reverse cut oil throw groove let into surface
which fills with hard, polished carbon.
Clean out this groove and all is back to normal unless crankcase pressure is too high.
Regards,
Bert Dive.

Re: Oil in TC Distributor
Hello,
Cleaned out the groove in my TC XPAG distributor shaft in 1996 with immediate improvement
which lasted until car was sold in 2000.

Re: Oil in TC Distributor
If memory serves me I think that there is a distributor out there with reverse grooves on the shaft. This will make it a pump. Has this unit been changed out for a replacement one? Possible someone has used the wrong drive.

Cleaned out the groove on my distributor shaft completely and no oil in
distributor for the last 12 months. Converted to the Hall effect ignition (solid
state) at the same time and recommend highly.
