95dev Posted December 12, 2010 Report Share Posted December 12, 2010 On my 95 4.9 Deville, I noticed that the round gasket between my throttle body, and air cleaner cover was in pieces when I took the cover off. I can't seem to find that gasket anywhere, and I'm not sure what it would be called. I put the cover back on without the gasket, would it cause a vacuum leak?

BodybyFisher Posted December 12, 2010 Report Share Posted December 12, 2010 The same happened to my 91 4.9, I got it at the dealer but that was about 10 years ago now if I recall. Have you checked the dealer or on line at www.gmotors.com? Sent them a price inquiry and see if they have it If you are unable to buy one, you might consider buying the appropriate weight of gasket material, and using the old one for size reference, for its width, cutting one out of the material. Let us know if you find it By the way, it wont cause a vacuum leak, if anything, unfiltered air could slip by, but if the cover screw is tight, I doubt that Pre-1995 - DTC codes OBD1 >> 1996 and newer - DTC codes OBD2 >> https://www.obd-codes.com/trouble_codes/gm/obd_codes.htm How to check for codes Caddyinfo How To Technical Archive >> http://www.caddyinfo.com/wordpress/cadillac-how-to-faq/ Cadillac History & Specifications Year by Year http://www.motorera.com/cadillac/index.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
