Hi I'm referring to this How-to: http://www.contour.org/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=trouble&Number=10673

Only this one is for V6 and I have 4 cylinders on my GL. Well I need a new Throttle body gasket and it says it should cost around $5... I call the dealer and ask for a Throttle body gasket - guy says it's $23. So I ask him if we're talking about the same gasket - he says it's a rubber one. Rubber one? From the pictures, a gasket for throttle body should be metal... at least it looks that way.

Does anyone know the stock part # for Throttle Body gasket on a Contour '97 GL? THANX

I ordered the gasket from the website... Shipping's worth more than the gasket itself - go figure.. Thanx for the help!!!
