Title: man-cat gasket 2.3 ultima
Post by nickaprilia on Feb 14^th, 2011, 2:47pm

I am fitting a replacement cat to my 2.3 ultima..... but i can't find a new manifold gasket for it. I have tried ebay! and looked at the Ford exhaust manual on this site, which does not mention a gasket. Has it got one?

Yes it has. If you look at the new Cat, you'll see a groove in an oval shape quite near to the hole. Look at the pics below, first with just the groove, second with the gasket in the groove, third with the part number. The gasket is cheap.
