It would be a good idea to clean the paint off of the sealing surfaces on the timing cover, and it would also be a good idea to get a new rubber o-ring seal for the distributor, they start to leak when they get old.

yeah i know, i was kinda p/oe'd when i painted it because the paint seeped through the tape, and i spent like a half hour taping the whole thing, then come to find out, it wasnt painters tape....

so now im just putting paint remover/stripper on a q-tip, goin over it and rubbing the paint off with a rag...its a pita, especially since i couldve avoided it
