Distributor Housing O-ring
The most common oil leak comes from the distributor housing o-ring against the back of the head. It is a hard to find replacement and cannot just be found at your local parts store.

Distributor Shank O-ring
Another common oil leak comes from your distributor housing o-ring.
This fresh new o-ring can also assist you when setting your timing by holding you distributor in place before tightening the set bolt.

Venturi Tube
If you are running a stock carbureted motor, you have a easily fixable problem. Suzuki should have put this part in from the factory but caught it to late. "...Samurais may exhibit a hesitation/flat spot, in any gear, when in acceleration from partial to open throttle." Your Samurai has or will have a flat spot in carburetor. When you are at an idle and you floor the throttle it will hesitate for a moment and then continue to rev up. That hesitation is what you want to get rid of. The reason for this is it causes a vacuum in the fuel bowl. This venturi tube catches some of the air coming into the engine and forces it into the bowl eliminating the flat spot. Super easy to install and only takes about 5 minutes.
