Throttle buttfly sealant, where to find?

[Fred-R]

Where can i buy this lps can quickly. Is it available at canadian tire or carquest/napa or somewhere else? I found it on the net but it´s like 2 weeks for shipping if i dont want to pay three times the cost of the can for express shipping...

Well I'll be....I would never have thought that you could get enough of a buildup to do what wee want. Hell of a lot less work too.

Seems like that this product contains some sort of ''dangerous'' chemical so it cant be shipped outside US unless you're ready to pay extra dinero to be on some sort of ''skid'' (i dont f*ckin know what it is)... So i've been quoted between 200-600USD for shipping... Group Buy? hahah

Edit: found a site that has a supply center where i live!! Called them and they have some!

I have just tried the Force 842 lubricant. Sprayed both sides of throttle body, mutiple coats. Before spray I could see some light around butterfly, after application no light. I masked off the bores of the throttle body down to the operating sweep of the butterfly and moved the butterfly between coats. I took the car, R32 GTS-T out for a ride on Friday and the idle dropped from around 1k to just shy of 800 rpm. I will check after a couple of months to see how the film is holding up.

tester enamel will not work as good as this moly dry film lubricant. Use same tomei instructions bit this is a spray so u will be covering more area brand name is LPS 842 dry film lunricant

There is an ackland-grainger or whatever it's called in Burnaby around still creek if anyone in the lower mainland is wanting this

[silvianc]

wanted to give u guys an idea of how they look with the dry film lube

Here doing my buddies itbs with the dry moly lube

After 3 coats itb slighty open so u can notice the light

Itb at close position. Before the aplication it had light all around the bore. After it dries im going to clean the gasket area and blow low pressure air to test them

Well hopefully it holds up. That will be my next winter project (again) if people are finding it lasts. Good luck!
