I have the Haynes manual and it says to replace the fiber washer when refitting the valve.. does anyone know what size this thing is or what I should be asking for at the parts store when I head in there..? type: '96 D1 V8 cheers, JD.   Brent (Silly_me) Member Username: Silly_me Post Number: 114 Registered: 07-2003 Posted on Monday, January 19, 2004 - 08:48 am:    I need to clean mine as well, anyone have this answer?   Rick Clarke (Tugcap) New Member Username: Tugcap Post Number: 40 Registered: 02-2002 Posted on Monday, January 19, 2004 - 08:42 pm:    http://www.discoweb.org/parts.htm Call NAPA ref the stepper motor part # and ask them for the washer info   JC (Hcdisco) New Member Username: Hcdisco Post Number: 2 Registered: 01-2004 Posted on Tuesday, January 20, 2004 - 10:15 am:    While your cleaning it make sure to clean out the T-fitting, and breather piece on the top of the passenger side valve cover. Both of those can lead to bad idle air bypass symptoms. Infact my T-fitting and breather were both completely blocked up when I cleaned them.
