    Get gaskets from the dealership. They're cheap.

      I hate everything about the dealership and try to avoid them if at all possible.

                  Ah, makes some sense...

                  What the hell is going on lately? Distributor is supposedly "dizzy", some "adjustment bars"? Wtf?

                  Can't you people look up the name of the part first if you really need it that much? I mean not only ETK is readily available, you got realoem.com type of resources. Is it that hard?

                    check real oem its called an adjusting bar... I don't create names up for parts that I'm trying to buy.

                      when you want some obscure part a picture is the way to go.

                            A day late, ended up ordering the damn parts online and getting raped on shipping. Still cheaper than the wonderful stealers.

                              I actually had to order one this week - realoem, the ETK, and the dealer's receipt all list it as "adj. bar". It cost me a whopping $8 at the local dealer by the way.
