inlet/throttle gasket

[panda_dan]

i just had my inlet manifold cut and shut. therefore the gasket was broken in the process. i need a new one and am finding it near impossible to track one down. can i use a tube of that orange gaskett stuff in it or should i get gasket paper and trace it out? just looking for the easiest option. cheers

Making one is easy enough.

Just use paper + siccors + hole punch + gasket goo

thats what I did works find

[panda_dan]

I just used gasket goo and havent had an problems.

[panda_dan]

did you just use regular old gasket stuff? i have some which i used on my diff head when putting it back into the diff housing after i locked it. do you reckon that same stuff will do the trick? what brand did you use? i guess it is not the kind of gasket you wanna muck around with or youll never have an even idle.

Just make one out of gasket paper, or buy one from toyota, I picked mine up for about $3 from toyota a couple of months ago, you dont really want goo around your throttle body. Is this for brendans old smallport?

[panda_dan]

hey bro yeah it is for brendan's old engine. shit it is a nice engine. cant wait to turn the key haha. good things take time. where abouts did you scam the gasket for $3? iv been looking everywhere. cheers for your help with getting the engine by the way - good stuff

From toyota, just a genuine gasket. Heh, it does look good, should be a nice motor, he copied exactly what I did to my motor, and for your info, I painted your rocker covers

[panda_dan]

bro you did a mean job with that rocker. thank you very much. im a bit gutted tho because i have been doing quite a bit of work on the engine and the rockers hav gotten all grubby! will have to sort that out before i go turning the thing on! as for the gasket i think i'l give Mr Rev Head a call and see if he can scab me one next week. cheers for your help
