Default Tps gasket
Replaced my TPS ACDELCO P/N 213-896. Did not come with the orange spoongy donut shaped "gasket" that lives between the TPS and TB. Mine looks original. Deformed, cracks, and just kinda mankey looking.
I've searched everywhere and no joy. I reused the old one but damn. It just doesn't make a girl feel pretty putting on old makeup.
Any leads would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Dave.

Maybe it is just an O-ring you can get? Didn't think mine came with gaskets.

I was thinking of the rubber on the actual connector.

Thinking on it, there is a piece of foam that goes between the TPS and TB. Not sure who would have that.

I think the gasket for the TPS is in this throttle body gasket kit AC Delco 40-744. It was included when I bought it.

Maybe best ask the seller where it is? If that is part of the kit, it should come with. OTOH, if that is a generic picture, all bets are off.
