Micra K11 throttlebody re-soldering.

[CMF_allar049]

Hi there,

does anybody know if the (silicone?) kit that seals the
electronics of the Micra K11 1993 throttlebody, contains
any asbestos?
Would be "healthy" to know if you remove the kit to be able to re-solder the connections in the throttlebody.

Thanks in advance.

Why would you think that it contains asbestos?
It's not a high temperature seal, not even a gasket, just some sealant between the aluminium body & pressed cover.
When removed the sealant is not dusty, it comes out in large chunks.
I believe asbestos has been a banned material in most countries since before the K11 was manufactured.
