Throttle body shaft seal question

[macx]

93 2.3, stock.

Noticed on the shaft going into the front of the throttle body that there
'appears to be some sort of ring, maybe a seal, that looks like it maybe
should fit into a groove in the throttle body around the shaft, maybe to
seal it so it doesn't suck air.

Does that sound correct?

Any simple way to hold it in place without removing the tb and going thru
all kinds of gyrations?

Thanks!

How about you make one thread, in the proper forum, with all your issues. This is general ranger discussion, not the 4-banger forum.
