Confused that's an under statement. Thanks lads. It's all good stuff. Really appreciate you taking to help out. I'm going out to tinker and will let you know what happens.

I had this same situation with my 4.0cck. Oil was seeping up though the o ring on the little rod..getting on the points and sputtering it out.  I even went so far to track down a complete new unit.. (Green t , the rod, points-- full unit replacement) Thankfully I didn't have to use it. When I compared the new unit to my old, I realized that the o ring gasket around the little rod wasn't installed on the new unit.  So, realizing they were the same minus this o ring-- I went back to my old unit, removed the o ring that was around the rod.  Problem solved. Hasn't done it since.
