    Replacement power piston/seal for a 72 Quadrajet

    I am rebuilding a 7042203 Quadrajet, and I found the power piston seal doesn't seat tightly
    in the throttle body casting, so that the power piston pops out. I've found replacement
    power piston springs from Edelbrock in assorted spring tensions, but no replacement
    power piston or piston seals. Anyone know where I can get a new seal?

    if the plastic retainer is not broken

    just hold it down and "stake" around it gently with a small center punch or chisel. i do this all the time with loose retainers. it is not a seal just a assy retainer. the very early ones used a metal spring clip and can be found on very early Qjets if you care to search around
