I have a 95 toyota camry with a 2.2/2200 motor and need to know how do u check a distributor's components to see if you are getting fire from it . I checked to see if i was getting fire at the end of one of the spark plug wires there was no spark so I checked inside distributor all looks ok but i found a small amount of oil just inside the bottom of the cap

Thanks for a response. testing is done with a scaop? Not sure what a scaop is, by the way can a distributor be taken apart and internal parts be replaced or should the whole distributor be replaced
