I was taking apart my TB and IAC to clean them, working on the surging idle. and i tried to take off this gasket, which broke on me, its on the left side of the IAC with the 4 screws

I was trying to find out where to get another one..


and i had a question about whats behind it...
something to do with coolant flow? was going to take that out and clean it also.


Ive been looking browsing the forums/interweb for the gasket but found nothing.

I have a 89 22re Pickup
Im new to toyota's this is my first one!!
Thanks guys,

I would just make one out of thin coolant friendly gasket material. Other then that the dealership or online are probably your only options.

Ive Looked online for the gasket. but no luck, Dealership probably and arm and a leg, havent checked them out though, maybe ill try your "coolant friendly gasket material." solution. What about the deal inside of it? is that the valve part?

Less than $5 at my local dealership.

Yeah i havent even checked at ours, im sure its the same. im more of a online/local shopper haha.

It looks like one of the screw holes is boogered up. If it is, you might want address that too.

The one in the 2nd picture? if so thats the gasket. i was trying to be easy but it broke on me. was looking for a replacement..

TylerH

Your going to pay more for the gasket material and razor knife then $5. I would just buy a new one. Or a whole new unit if that casting is broke.

Whole new Auxiliary Air Valve is about $250, so hopefully it's in decent shape...otherwise, start digging through junk yards.

The Gasket is still on the IAC in the 2nd picture nothing is broken on. it just needs to be clean. is it okay to take the valve part that has to 2 slots on each side? To clean it?

TylerH

I scored a used clean one off ebay about a year ago for around $100. Well a whole throttle body.

BMcEL

Yes, just be careful when disassembling it.

What's with the avatar? lol

kyle9013

What should I look out for when disassembling it?!
Lol the avatar? Haha I think it was a little get together at the house and I was most likely intoxicated

BMcEL

Well, don't just turn it upside down and shake it.

kyle9013

Is there something in there? I just don't wanna mess something up. That's why I'd though and ask before I start tearin things up lol.

kyle9013

On the throttle body the flap inside, should you see any light through the other side?

i found a thread somewhere about it but i cant remember where at.. Doh!
