I wonder if the cap gasket (#14030) under the distributor cap has an important
funktion? Can something bad happen if I don`t use it?
What is the thickness of the gasket?
I had to order one of those a few weeks ago.....when I found that my distributor cap didn't have one either.....although it had been running for years without one. Like Jerry said, it helps to keep moisture out.
