INSPECTION

The Saturn TBI assembly gasket kit contains two fuel meter to throttle body gaskets stamped with the last five digits of the part number. When replacing this gasket, you must first identify the fuel meter body part number, and then select the correct gasket for that application.

1. Identify the last five digits of fuel meter body as shown in diagram.

2. Select the gasket according to the following criteria:
