Default 92 Si distributor DIY?????

I need to replace the O ring. It's really damp underneath the distributor. I don't know the protocol of changing it. I made sure I searched for a DIY and couldn't find one, so no one dog me if there IS one somewhere.

Any help would be cool. I'm gonna change the wires, cap and rotor when I do it. If I bump into a distributor cheap by the time someone can help me, I'll just change the whole thing, if it's feasible.

Good lookin' out guys. The car is running ok so far. Just changed my cracked header and replaced the O2 sensor. My gas mileage improved immensely.

It's so easy you will feel silly for asking. I have a VX, I would assume it's the same.

1) Mark the distributor to head position with a marker or whatever so you don't have to re-adjust timing.
2) Pull distributor. There will be an ounce of oil come out so have a towel or something handy.
3) use a pick or knife or anything to remove the old one. Try not to gouge anything.
4) put on new O-ring. The overpriced OEM one from honda was less than $3.
5) drink a coke and say, "that was easy!"
