Installing my steering rack in my 6 and noticed that there is a decent size hole were the shaft comes through the firewall. Looked on PET and it shows item #32 is a gasket that looks to go over the top of the shaft before the shaft connects to the U-joint under the dash. 914 rubber doesn't look like they carry that. My son's 1.7 is missing it, and Brant's car is missing it too. I have some chunks of open cell foam which I could probably use to make something that would seal the area around the shaft. Thoughts? Ignore it? If I am going to do something about it...now is the time before I tap the U-joint over the splines and bolt it together.

Yes, there is a piece that seals against the hole for the steering shaft. it's on the tank side I can see it around the shaft through the hole The diagram in my real 914 parts manual doesn't help. I assembled it two years ago and can't remember the part. I'm disassembling a car on Sat. ...I'll get the part. |
