A new Fuel Injection Throttle Body Mounting Gasket that isn't fitted for your specific vehicle may not create a proper seal and might allow excessive air into the intake.
Along with too much air, an incompatible Fuel Injection Throttle Body Mounting Gasket can let dirt, debris, carbon deposits, and other materials to accumulate in the housing, causing other potential long-term issues.
