Installation Notes and Tips

Before installing the Fel-Pro 60847 gasket, clean the throttle body mounting surface thoroughly to remove old gasket material, dirt, and oil. Ensure the gasket aligns correctly with the four bolt holes and throttle body bore. Tighten bolts evenly to the manufacturer’s torque specifications to avoid warping or damage. Avoid using sealants unless specified by the vehicle manufacturer, as the cork material is designed to seal effectively on its own.
