I seemed to have wrecked my Throttle body to Intake gasket pulling my throttle body off tonight. It was really hard and cracked, and one side flaked apart.
Can these be bought any where, part source, crappy tire, etc or is it a dealer only part. If so anyone have a part number.
Thanks

Thanks Ziggy, good to know you have this stuff. Chrysler has discontinued them. Mitsu here had to order one in for next week. Crappy tire said they cant find it on the computer (typical). Part Source would have to order one for next week also.
I need my car A.S.A.P so I bought a sheet of gasket material from Napa and traced out the old gasket and made a new one.
Took a bit of time getting the holes right,but I put it back together, tested it and no leaks.

I second that, RTV works well. Just don't go nuts you don't want the extra to end up in your engine. As an added bonus it will stop another boost leak.
