Another..... Yes, ANOTHER Throttle Body question!!

[vibez666]

Just a quick one,

I gave the throttle body a quick clean the other day while it was still on the inlet manifold, but would really like to remove it and do it properly. I know its just a case of disconnecting air box and removing 4 bolts but what I would like to know before I start is, is there a seal or gasket of some sort between the throttle body and inlet manifold that I should be aware of, if so will it need replacing when I do the job.

Any other advice or pointers before I start, will be much appreciated

Yes there is a gasket between them

Best practice would be to replace it, but I never have

Also follow russ16v guide

I had mine off the other day to clean and there isn't a gasket it was just an O ring.
