Detailed Description

Mahle G31844 is a fuel injection throttle body mounting gasket used at the spacer-to-intake-manifold connection in the listed Lincoln LS and Ford Thunderbird applications. The molded rubber construction helps maintain a stable seal at the throttle body mounting surface, while the OEM-standard grade supports service replacement needs where the original sealing profile matters. If you are replacing a worn throttle body gasket on a Lincoln LS or Ford Thunderbird, G31844 provides a fitment-specific sealing solution.

Common Issues It Can Address

  • Air leaks at the throttle body mounting interface
  • Vacuum leaks at the spacer-to-intake-manifold seal
  • Rough idle caused by degraded gasket sealing
  • Throttle body service requiring a new sealing gasket
  • Loss of sealing integrity from heat and age

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the application notes before installation, including the spacer-to-intake-manifold fitment and the 11/18/02 production note for the 2003 Lincoln LS. Clean both sealing surfaces thoroughly before installing the gasket, and inspect the throttle body and spacer for damage or warpage that could affect sealing.

Quality Assurance

Mahle gaskets are produced as world-class sealing products and are trusted by OEMs and technicians around the globe. Part number G31844 is built to OEM-standard expectations for the listed applications.
