240SX/KA24 distributor seal

[JayArr]

Hi All

I want to put a new seal in the distributor, I've got it all apart but I'm not sure about where to get one.

Google searches bring up some posts about a seal for the Altima:

Nissan OE # B2131-01M00 (under $10 when I got it). Or Borg Warner # DG23 if you find someone to order it. I believe this fits all 1st Gen and possibly 2nd Gen (Nissan still sells it but apparently does not catalog it). I verified my old seal by size dimensions imprinted on top: 12.45 22 6 (ID x OD x H).

I'm just not sure this will fit the 240 distributor. For one thing, when I pull the shaft and measure, the journal that sits in the seal is 14mm, does the seal stretch from 12.45 to 14? This seal also measures closer to 24mm OD. The part number moded onto it is NOK AH0514E.

Has anyone ever found a source or a Nissan part number for these?

Look on their exploded parts pictures, won't give you the part number but you can just order one.

Nothing listed on either of those sites, I checked long ago. I hate to buy a new distributor just because I can't find a $2 seal but I may be beat on this one.
