I ran into the same thing when I was looking for my 93. I had to get it at a dealer.

Yours, if I'm not mistaken, is a paper type gasket though. You would think that it would be easier to find.

It'* actually a rubber, formed gasket.

When I replaced it on my 99 it came as a kit with the upper intake manifold gasket (along with the o-rings, etc.).

On the 93 that I used to own, I replaced just the gasket when I cleaned the throttle body. I bought that gasket by itself from AutoZone for less than $2.

Cool, that'* what I wanted to hear. I guess I'll actually call a few local stores and see who'* got what.
