Default HELP HELP HELP with S2 RST Throttle body

Help, i just been to local ford dealer to get part of the pipe that goes from the Aux air valve to the underneath of the throttle body but they couldnt find it.

The part im after is a rubber sleve/o ring that goes inside the pipe (yellow arrow) and then gets clamped down on a metal "J" shape pipe that goes into underneath of the throttle housing (yellow circle)



Anyone with access to Microcat can you help ???

Cheers

those rubber sleeves tend to split. You could make one from a rubber strip and use some sealant if you have no luck elsewhere.

Andy you got no hope of finding one from Ford, I've tried myself...

The part you want is the whole pipe as they don't sell the rubbers seperately.

Its listed but not carried anymore

Come to think of it I'm sure I've got some good ones in the shed, I'll have a look 2moro for ya and let you know?

Cheers guys, took that pipe off today and found that the sleve is inside the pipe as it should be and seems to be all ok.

So i guess i dont need one and its not the cause of my problem, but thanks
