I mean O rings. I went to auto zone and had them matched, but they seem to be a little more loose than the ones on there

Personally I'd get the stock ones from Ford. JMHO.

You need the kit from Ford. I it comes with both orings and a graphite seal. Approx $17 bucks.

Thanks, could I just unplug it for now since I put the not so good ones on there. I just don't want to screw the thing up. It would only be for about 20 min of driving

Shure if it runs OK

it might let to much exhaust gas into the intake IDK might not run very good IDK try it

Iv tried to match oring before on things its Very Hard to do and get right
