Help with 1986 Renix parts.

[Dogote]

Hello,

 

I'm finally getting to some much needed repairs on the 1986 Comanche X 2.5 manual transmission truck I bought a year ago.

I bought a aluminum Valve cover, a bunch of gaskets, hoses, and have some parts I took off of my Jeep JK that I will recycle into the suspension like a set of RK 2.5" coils and some Bilstien remote reservoir shocks.

 

I am having trouble finding the throttle body gasket. Does anyone know where to get one? 

 

 

None of the usual places like Summit, Dorman, or Crown seem to have it. I have had really good luck finding everything from Summit. I usually search the Crown or Dorman number and it comes right up. I usually need enough things to get the free shipping.

It appears that the gasket comes with a new fuel injector. Should I just get one? I have no reason to think mine is bad, but I have not checked the spray pattern and the truck does have 190K miles on it. Here's the injector that appears to come with gaskets:

But it says "Parts Included:(1) Crown Fuel Injector" So who knows? The same part at Summit shows just the part in the picture. 

Any help would be appreciated, and yes, I have read the Renix tips, didn't find what I was looking for, but found a lot of other good tips that I will do.

Go to Oreilly's and get BWD part # 10822. It's what I used to replace all the gaskets on my 87's TBI system.

Thanks, I'll see if I can get it online from them. Nearest O'Reilly's is 45 miles away.

But now I have found a bad valve. I did a compression check and the rear cylinder was only making 60 PSI. I then did a leak down test and the rear cylinder was 30/70.

I pulled the head and the valves don't look too bad. The valve guides are okay too. I think if I re-cut the seats and grind the valves. it will be fine. 

 

I am now questioning if I should just pull the engine. I'll start a new thread..........
