Hi all, I'm new here and this is my first post. Hoping the collective knowledge of this place will help me fix a really annoying problem I've been having.
The other day, I noticed my engine was leaking oil right where the distributor meets the block. I took the distributor out to clean both mating surfaces, then popped it back in and tightened up the retainer. Now the car doesn't want to start and sometimes even backfires when cranking. My car is a 1969 850 Sport Coupe with the 903cc engine and a Magneti Marelli S118AA distributor.
Any answer or advice you folks might have is helpful.
