The cover grommets are not available by themselves unfortunately! :(
The Chrysler OEM part No. is: 53013813AB for the complete engine cover, it comes with mounting parts.
Rock Auto and Factory Mopar has them listed, just :google: OEM part number!
Found one listed on eBay new as well with free shipping> search eBay using OEM part number...

Some member on here may have a used one they would be willing to part with as some people opt remove them and run without one.... :idea:

You will likely have to get these from a dealer.

Or from someone who discarded their useless cover. If you get lucky maybe you can catch someone before it goes in the trash?

the dealer don't even have em listed in their computer !!!!!

I had to change 4 injectors on my jeep, they are crazy expensive and their is a space between the injector and the head that fill with crap.
if you do a lot of gravel road and off road it a good thing to have the engine cover !!!!!

if someone have a few grommet I will take em

I have the feeling these grommet are probably used on some other Chrysler product !!!!!

thanks

They're kind of like Snaploc connectors. I wonder if these could be made to work

Wow, how d'ya manage that. Catastrophic failure involving all 4 cylinders, run something bad through the fuel system or some sort of electrical failure that fried them all?

They can fail on their own but they're usually taken out by a collision with a valve head or some glow plug debris. It would be highly unusual to lose more than one at a time.

Of course there are some unscrupulous shops that will mis-diagnose other fuel related problems with injectors and just replace them all.

That is because Chrysler/Mopar does not list them in their parts as a separate part nor do they have a part number; they are only supplied with a new cover, part No. 53013813AB!!!

I fully understand! Your options are few; find a used cover and use it or remove the grommets from it and install in yours, or try and make some grommets out of some kind of other rubber grommets. Shock grommets come to mind as being possibly close in size that you might be able to make work? :idea:
Good luck!!!

I am looking for one of the 4 studs that screws into the engine valve cover and holds down the engine cover.

And, I have an engine cover that I'd like to sell, it has three grommets instead four.... it's missing a grommet. $40.00.

Hey, I was hunting for the missing grommet too and finally found a source.

I looked around for other chrysler grommets that looked similar and then took a gamble ordering one. It ended up being a 100% perfect match.

$18.50 each though so not the cheapest solution, but less than a full new cover.

Just search this part number. There are a lot of sources:

ENGINE COVER GROMMET - 68110855AA (68110855AA)
