I don't think there's any way you will get a seal to keep pressure from getting past the TB. As long as you're not leaking externally you should be ok. Refresh my memory, are you testing this because of a high idle issue?

Is a partially leaking acceptable or should the tb plate (and both air valves) totally seal off the manifold? _______________________________________________ Miatapower mailing list [email protected] http://list.miatapower.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/miatapower _______________________________________________ Miatapower mailing list [email protected] http://list.miatapower.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/miatapower
