TBI Gaskets
Hi. I was messing around with my EGR the other day and I noticed something for the first time.
There is the breather tube coming from the driver side valve cover that goes to a collar thing which surrounds the injector pods and the air cleaner housing sits on top of the collar.

Throttle Body Unit
Anyway, are there supposed to be gaskets that go underneath (tbi side) and on top (air cleaner side) of this collar???
Also, what is the correct name for this "collar"
Thanks!!

Well, I found the gasket that goes between the air filter and the collar through napaonline, BUT I am not able to find a gasket that goes between the tbi and the collar.
Can somebody help me out with a part no?
Thanks!!

Great.
Sorry, it sounds like a stupid question, but mine didn't have either when I got it.
Thanks again!
