I have a 1995 Dodge Ram 1500 pick-up with the 318 auto.

I noticed when I had the air cleaner system off that when I put the piece back on the throttle body,it sat on there kinda loose and did not quite fit tight enough and would surely be letting in unfiltered air. I don't believe there was a gasket in the air cleaner assembly that fits between it and the throttle body. Is there supposed to be a gasket? If so where can I get one cheap?

Thanks!

 

there is a gasket, and it can be found at any of your local parts stores for under 5$.

Thanks Guys!

I thought there should be one on there. I'm wondering if that is why it runs a little funny sometimes. Would that have any effect if it was getting air from around the throttle body / air cleaner connection....I don't think these have a MAF sensor do they?

 

No MAF. If it runs funny at idle, check IAC as well. And check plenum as well. That could do it.
