Anyone know where to get the gaskets for the throttle body and for between the upper runners and the Dynamic Effect Chamber? I was able to find the gaskets for the lower intake, between lower and runners as well as the BAC valve, but not the ones for the TB (2) and the one for between the runners and the DYnamic chamber. Any help would be greatly appreciated. On a side note does anyone have any ideas on how to get the gunk out of the runners? THink i'm gonna replace all the vaccuum hoses with silicone hoses as well, while i have it off. Any other suggestions?

 

the TB one U have to get it from mazda........The one between the runners and LIM?<<<<is that the one U need?........
I would say mazda also....But If U go to Ur local hardware store....U can find this"gasket material" About $5 bucks.......U can cut it to shape and you can make all your intake gaskets w/ it......Even MOre! That's what i did w/ my car .........Its been working fine 4 about a week...and also dont use any silicone sealant......Use the High Tach or tack???? B/C gas eats up the Blue/red/black silicone sealant

 

www.mazdatrix.com is your best friend:

Upper to Lower IM gasket - 12-114A-N304 - 84/85 SE - $3.09


DEI to UIM gasket - 13-116A-N304 $4.07


No luck on TB gasket, but this may be dealer only.

On the gunk in the runners - use a wire brush and a lot of 'brake cleaner' that you can get from an autoparts store. This will cut through the carbon and get the runners very clean. Make sure to remove the LIM from the engine before you do any of this or all that gunk will end up in your engine. HTH,

 

TB gasket is dealer only, but the problem is that according to the parts guys at borgman ford mazda here it's not offered anymore. Can you say X-Acto knife and some gasket material from NAPA, I think you can.

 

i was thinking that too...any one think media blasting would be worth it on the intake? If i want to get that "factory" shine. Or maybe even extrude honing?

Anyway, thanks for all the help
