Intake manifold to Engine O-rings

So on the RB website it shows these

http://www.racingbeat.com/FRmazda2.htm

I don't remember having put them on... I don't know why I didn't have any extra o-rings in my pack of of gaskets and o-rings from my engine. Someone wanna explain where they go?

Thanx

Your link doesn't work.

But I assume you mean the two o-rings that go between the lower intake and the block?

Only used on 13BTs and 12As. If you don't use them, you'll get leaks in very short order. One ring goes in each coolant passage on each housing. They seal between the housing and the lower intake manifold.

In order to link to RB, you have to right click, properties, then copy the link from there.

Still didn't work...And why would it, considering both lead to the same address...

Much better...Yep, those are the 13BT/12A manifold to housing o-rings. Not needed for the NA 13B.
