## What is wrong

VEHICLE DESCRIPTION:    SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES.  THE CAST ALLOY THROTTLE BODY IS HEATED BY FLUID BLED FROM THE COOLING SYSTEM, TO PREVENT ICING IN EXTREMELY COLD WEATHER CONDITIONS.  THIS FLUID PASSES THROUGH A SMALL ATTACHMENT \(PLATE\) TO THE THROTTLE BODY, WHICH UTILIZES A CORK GASKET.  THE CORK GASKET HAS PROVEN TO BE UNRELIABLE IN THIS APPLICATION.  CONSEQUENTLY, COOLANT FLUID CAN LEAK FROM THE INTERFACE BETWEEN THE DE\-ICER PLATE AND THE THROTTLE BODY.


## What can happen

SHOULD THIS COOLANT COLLECT ON HIGH TEMPERATURE REGIONS OF THE ENGINE, THE COOLANT FLUID COULD IGNITE.


## The remedy

DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE THROTTLE BODY GASKET, DE\-ICER ATTACHMENT, AND SECURING HARDWARE.
