Hi,
I need some help. I buy and sell cars as well as being a full time mechanic. I have a 87 Accord with the 2.0 2BBl carb. The two felt seals around the throttle shaft were leaking vaccume. I removed the carb and pulled the seals out. I ordered an aftermarket rebuild kit but it didn't come with the seals. Next I had the dealer fax me a breakdown of the carb to see if the seals would come in the factory rebuild kit. The diagram didn't show the throttle plate ***. in pieces so I don't know if they come in the kit. I then ordered a second kit from Nappa but that one didn't have them either. Since I can't return the kit from the dealer I havent tried that one yet. Can anyone here tell me if the seals I need come in the kit from the dealer or how I could get them? I don't have enough room ($$$) to buy a new carb and still make any money. If anyone can help can you please ither post here or mail me at jim42macia@hotmail.com

Thanks,
MIKE

PS you the funny thing about this is, a few month ago the other tech in our shop rebuilt one of these and the kit he got had the seals in it. I have tried to find the ticket from the parts store to get the part number for this kit and it seems to be missing. LOL

 

Call the place where you got the rebuild kit from and ask for the seals.

 

I got the first kit from them and the seals were not in the kit. Thats why I tried to find the ticket with the P/N. I think they might have sent me a different brand.
