I know this has been asked on this forum, sorry cannot get it to come when searched , Does any ine have a picture of the kit installed ?
Does the oem air breather gasket get put back on?
If the cover gasket is used it will have a hard time staying on with out glueing it somehow
The cover looks naked with out.

 

Are you talking about the off round gasket that goes between the A/c and the throttle body which has three holes? Th SE kit should have come with a new one. If you bought yours used you will need to buy one they cost about a dollar, or if your lucky peel the one from the old AC kit, but yes you need it. It comes with adhesive on one side, you have to peel the wax paper off of it to expose the glue.

You can always help a gasket hold in place by smearing any kind of grease on one surface

 

Vaseline works great. use it on a lot of pneumatic orings on acft

 

Sorry it is the black original gasket that around chrome cover.The kit is new the instructions say to throw it away.
I do not throw anything away may need
Thanks

 

if you are talking about a 13 Bob you need a spacer between the air cleaner and the inside of original cover, it does stick on to filter and called a service part, and a longer cover bolt too. The rubber surround that probably stayed on the rim of the cover when you pulled it off is not used. factory cover sits right against the breather bolt holes. I didn't see sticky on the fiber gasket though, hope I didn't miss it. Wish I would have got a black back plate though... silver looks out of place on black engine... geuss that's another 35 bucks, thought about painting it but not sure yet. Easy install. just keep all the parts from factory intake so you can swap on trade in time.

 

Yea Black back would have been nice, I got the thick black rubber spacer right
It just looks odd , Sure will breather now, that is what I was after.
Thanks

 

Mine came off , I put a little silicone seal on it and it sticks fine.

 

I am with you, the filter cover has an "unfinished look" without the gasket. I used small amount of silicone sealer to keep the rubber gasket in place.
