RE: [DML] Fuel distributor o-rings

It's not just DeLoreans. Porsches also have the same problem and I supply
Viton until someone comes up with why. Most in the FD business thinks it's
inrush pressure that does it.

I have the exact same problem. Put in new oranges an two weeks later I am
having hot start problems and the o ring has a big bite in it. Maybe we have
fuel termites.

the rear of the car, the missing piece is at the 3 o-clock position. Has
anyone experienced this? Is it time for a new distributor? Is the
distributor something I can take apart to look into? I assume this is the
cause of my hot start problem.
