Where to buy upper CFI gasket?

December 08, 2004, 02:36:34 PM

The upper CFI gasket on my '87 T-bird is leaking and I need to disassemble the CFI assembly to remove the fuel injectors for my '85 Cougar. Advance/Autozone/NAPA don't have the gaskets. I went to the Ford dealer and they said the part was obsolete. Anyone know where to grab a few of these? I've yet to try the local part houses. Maybe they have them.

Below is a picture I stole from Jcassity that shows the location of the gasket in question.

I'm thinking maybe Jccasity just used silicone in there?

You'd think they have at least one stinking gasket in stock somewhere, considering how many cars it fits...

I went to a Lincoln/Mercury dealership and they ordered the gasket. They come in packs of 5 so I had to buy the set. ~$5/gasket. It peeves me off the first dealer (an SVT parts seller) said they were unavailable. The first dealer also said heater core inlet restrictors were unavailable. :rolleyes:
