i will tell u this :
DO NOT EVER buy a Dist. o-ring From SOR.com !
they sell a SAE imposter thats a hair too big in Girth , u will NOT be able to
push your distributor in the bore ,
i used 2 hands and all my body weight , the side of o-ring got shafed off like lunch meat at the deli ...
this odd thing has happend to me like 4 times over the years , i call sor
and they say what ever ..............?
problem is when u push and dizzy stops u think its engaged with the oil pump
in reality it's like a inch above still ....
i ONLY use and buy OEM Toyota ones , they are more of a spaghetti o-ring
and the dizzy slides in as it should
has anyone else at all ever gotten this SAE o-ring from sor before ?
if so speak up !
thanks matt

hi john,
I just confirmed the correct o-ring part # Is the 90099-14090
Toyota USA market MSRP is $5.40
O-Ring
Part Number: 90099-14090
Replaces: 90099-14020, 90099-14106
Fits:
-
- Land Cruiser,
i stock them at all times , and they fit a small cap , Med cap and big cap F , and 2F
and 3FE also
and 3FE also
ok
so another needed o-ring is the cap packings :
Med. cap : up till 8/80 : 19127-41141
then ........
8/80-9/87 2F big Cap packing : Old # 19127-52020
supersedes Now to a 19127-61240

finally john ,
im sure u are aware of the new updated required hold down clamp 19905-40010
well , i found out the hard way about a year ago TOYOTA has Disc. / NLA the
unique Short Shaft Semms hold down bolt , itself ?
so i had 1 NOS single bolt and i spec'd it out , and special ordered these
Exact TOYOTA OEM Hold down size thread pitch , diameter , and Length
also , Dual or double SEMMS washers
yellow zinc to Boot !
they were not cheap but are mechanically and period correct in every way
Ran into that exact thing today! Exactly. I could have written the exact same comment.
did the engine block slice the side off like the deli meet at the Grocery Store does ?
Probably would have, but I'm not strong enough to push that hard!
