ok, i finally got around to taking my intake apart and cleaning the throttle body. while i had everything apart and cleaned i thought i could just polish the intake manifold while i was at it. when i looked at it, i noticed the seal that goes between the intake manifold and tb was a little screwed up. you know how there are two little rubber rings on there? they kinda peeled of some. is that ok?

 

that's fine.. it's a $5 gasket anyway.. if you're worried, just buy another one.

 

thanks, it didnt seem like any air was leaking so i guess its ok.
