Hey guys,

My Rover's in the shop getting a new upper-intake gasket, and they noticed where my leak actually was, and it's with the following gasket.

So I ask you, my favorite Land Rover buddies- can YOU name that gasket? I need to order a new one

It's "on the bottom side of the plenum at the throttle body", according to the mechanic.



Thanks... SO much, as always.

Pat

 

FYI- I looked at ALL the gaskets on RoverParts.com, and don't see it sold individually.

It's in the full kit- http://www.roverparts.com/product/img/Icn/STC4082BK.jpg

But it's not there individually. If any of you can put a name to this little baby, I'd REALLY appreciate it.

Thanks!

Pat

 

Throttle body gasket

 

THANK YOU!

The replacement looks like this- is that right? Is the center stuff not needed then?

Maybe they can just make one?

 

Thats the wrong one...

The correct answer is throttle body heater plate gasket

Damn, never mind- I found this- the gasket I linked to is not right....

That is the one. I would get the whole kit, that plate can warp etc..

When mine blew it shot fluid straight onto the manifold. I was on the road so I zip tied a piece of folded up tinfoil across the front of the plate until I could get home. LOL!

 

If you are in a pinch, just bypass it and tie the 2 lines together until the new kit comes in...

 

Bingo - that's the one. I had to put a new one in when I did my head gasket job. Get the whole kit for the $25 (not just the gasket).


P.S. - It also comes in the head gasket kit from AB standard for the 4.6L Bosch motor.

 

Perfect!

Just ordered one.

THANKS GUYS!
