PTC grommet (97 850) 850

I'm trying to replace just the grommet for the PTC, and I'm having a helluva time finding it. I've found one for the P2 chassi, but not the 850's.

Does anyone know if the PTC from an 850 is the same as the ones from newer models (2001 to 2007)?

Or does anyone know a way to purchase the PTC Valve Grommet for an 850, without having to buy the entire air intake hose?

Junk yard only. For the 850/70 the PTC only came with new air intake tube. I suppose some JBWeld would solve any air leaks or mounting issues?? A hot glue gun might not work with all of the oil residue down there.

Keeping it running is better than buying new

well that's just dumb.

Thankfully I think mine isn't in dire need of being replaced.

Btw, again thanks for all the emails regarding my vacuum/p0171 and wastegate issue.
I'd like to organize them and post a big thread about it eventualy..mostly with the caveat of "I didn't hook up the vacuum lines correctly...d'oh!.
