You could do a smoke test, or take it off and rig up a pressure tester with couplers and caps, but it's probably a good maintenance thing to do on all 40-year-old throttle bodies really. I still haven't been able to pull the kits together, and it will likely be another few weeks. I'll have to look at costs to set a price. I see Paragon was selling the kits for $29, at least for the n/a version, so suspect it will be something slightly north of that, assuming everything costs more than the last time Bruce made these kits.notny41 wrote: Wed Jun 05, 2024 9:20 am How do I know if I need one of these or not @Tom ?
Also, what is the price?

At this point, I would say it could be useful for any car - the seals on the shaft of my car came out in about 200 pieces, they were dried and just disintegrated as I was pulling it apart.
