icv to throttle body connection

[Foshizzle]

so after taking off my icv valve to clean it, i found that this connection just slipped out of the throttle body with little effort. Could be a source of vacuum leaks as well. I was just wondering the proper way to secure this? Should i just use some teflon tape or is there a better way to do i?

I use JB Weld on all the throttle body connections like that. Including the 1 or 2 (depending on the year of your car) brake booster ports,

Very common in E30 M20 engine, I just used RTV red gasket maker to seal it.

RTV it and call it a day. If you're boosted, JB weld it.
