Help with intake gasket
 

I would like to install new valve cover gaskets (1989 N/A). To do this I must remove the throttle body and air intake connector. Cygnusx1 page FI-91 shows what I am talking about. In the middle figure you see a V structure for the intake manifold. I tried to find the part number for the gasket on the parts blow-up site but I'm not sure if I'm looking at it correctly. Can someone help with a name or number for this gasket. Also, would you use an adhesive? Thanks in advance.

in general when you buy the gasket or look at buying the gasket they come in a kit atleast thats what i've found , i have a turbo and when i get the gasket kit it has both n/a gaskets and turbo gaskets .

You can get it at the dealer. Very reasonable price. Parts guy will let you look at his screen to confirm your part.

Thanks, but theres more
 

Thanks for the input guys, but nobody answered about adhesives. Would you use them on the intake manifold (I would think so), but what about the valve covers, as these are like rubber o-rings? What have you done?

replace the stock screws they suck

Got It
 

Thanks everybody, but I found the part number for the gasket. It's 17128. That cygnus site is fantastic. It's great to be able to walk into a place and know exactly what you need and not be given the run-around by some geeky teenager. I still haven't had anyone answer my question of if I should use a sealer on those rubber gaskets for the valve covers yet. Any one out there know what there doing who can give me a hand. Thanks.

i used a sealant i don't remember the brand name but it's orange in color
i want to say permaflex or something like that .
did you already take apart the intake ? you might want to plan ahead if you didn't and look up more gaskets that are around that area , you might find that you need more than one gasket and what the heck while you have it apart it makes sense to replace .
