Keep the distributor base sealed against the engine with the MAHLE Distributor Mounting Gasket B45833, a molded rubber gasket that seals the joint where the distributor mounts. It fits many vehicles, among them the 1993-1998 Toyota Supra, 1993-2005 Lexus GS300 and 2001-2005 Lexus IS300 with the L6-3.0L engine, and is a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for the full list.
A distributor mounting gasket helps prevent leaks at the distributor mount. Signs this part may need replacing include oil seepage around the distributor base or a gasket that is cracked, hardened or flattened when the distributor is removed. If a worn distributor mounting gasket is the cause of the leak, this replaces it. Fitting a new gasket whenever the distributor comes out is good practice. Follow the vehicle service information for installation and ignition timing.
