air sucking noise?

onewickedkid05 · Post by **onewickedkid05** » Tue Oct 23, 2007 11:28 pm

so i got and installed my Modern 60mm tb had to use lowes hex scres for the adapter plate ran it around the block everything seemed fine. I just noticed this air sucking noise coming from the throttle body and when i took a really close look it looks as if the adapter plate has a small gap in it between it and the throttle body right in the front...not sure how to fix it?

Since it's not sealing good, make a gasket (if you don't have one already).

Use gasket maker...it's that sticky black tar looking stuff.

Comes in a tube at Autozone or any autostore for about 5 bucks

It'll help your idle out a lot

thanks guys will it be ok till midday tomorrow gotta go to work.

i had that blue silicon stuff but i was like thats prob a bad idea lol..
What do i do with the tar just apply it on the underside of the adapter in the front or just squirt some in the hole

You just want to put a thin line about 1/4" around the outside the hole(s). YOU DO NOT WANT TO GET ANY INSIDE THE HOLE!

Mine did the same thing, I wonder why it doesn't come with a gasket.
