Installation Notes and Tips
Inspect the throttle body and mating surfaces before installation. Remove any old seal material, dirt, or carbon buildup so the new O-ring seats evenly. Verify the replacement matches the original dimensions and application before reassembly. For best results, install on a clean, dry surface and confirm the throttle body is properly aligned during tightening.
