is it coming between the distributor cap and the distributor ? how in hell is that car starting then ? it should be an o ring in the head that is shot. it's pretty inexpensive but you need to remove the distributor and the timing will be a biatch.

yea but then the timing.. or no what u can do is, make a mark on the dist. and the block right under it.. ( or what ever you can put a mark on under the distributor) dont know to much about that year of accord... then when you put it bac on just line the 2 lines up.. and there u go.. good luck man!
