rubber donut for idle

Post by grega »

Help please
Hey guys. I removed the rubber donut that sits between the idle adjustment double nut. And It fell sowhere in the engine.
I'm afraid it's lost for good. Does anyone know where i can get another one?

IAP should have them, I don't see them on the website, but give them a call.

Is it the one between the plenum and the double nut adjuster?
If so then any correct sized rubber o-ring should do the trick.
The trick with this is when you tighten the adjuster it squashes the o-ring and makes the hole smaller, and so lets less air pass. I'm guessing you all knew that.
I replace mine every once and a while as they can get out of shape or loose their squishyness.

Hi all,
does anyone have the thickness and the exact size of this donut? Mine has already shrinked and it is difficult to see the right size. I already tried a few ones, but none of them worked well, idle was always difficult to set.
Or does one know where to get them? (other than international-auto)
Thx
