Re: Throttle body Gasket Posted by vvack0matic [Email] (#1443) [Profile/Gallery] (more from vvack0matic) on Thu, 6 Jun 2013 10:56:36 In Reply to: Throttle body Gasket, David from Ontario, Thu, 6 Jun 2013 09:31:50 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
There are only 2 rubber gasket for the throttle body, the gasket on the left in the picture fits under the throttle body between it and the intake manifold. The gasket on the right slips over the top of the TB and slides down in the throttle body grove where the plastic hose coming from the inter-cooler c-clamps to.
Now I am talking about a 2.3 the 6 cylinders may have a flat paper gasket and like you said later years may require a few more gaskets than the two I needed. It was kind of amazing that when I asked about reusing the rubber gasket dreede jumped on within a few min. confirming reusing the old gaskets are fine. That's all i needed to hear
By the way thanks again deede the new TB is installed and car is running gr8. had to use a very thin line of gasket maker in the bottom grove of the TB to get the rubber gasket to stay in while it was upside down it was only just enough to get the gasket to stick. Least its wasn't a wast of a day waiting for the new gasket to arrive. Two thumbs up man!!
