    cleaning TB? and where do i get this gasket?

    i just disassembled my TB so i can clean it, and realized there is a gasket between the IAC/vacuum port housing and the TB. where can i get a new gasket?

    what's the best way to clean a TB? i was planning on using Berryman's chem dip and leave it sit for awhile (overnight?). or should i just spray the hell out of it with carb/brake cleaner?

          too late, i've already taken the throttle body completely apart and soaked it in Berryman's Chemdip overnight (not the TPS or AIC of course lol).

          hopefully i can find the AIC/vacuum port housing gasket at NAPA tomarrow.

              I haven't seen that gasket anywhere besides GM. Worst case, just get a gasket "sheet" and make it.

                  Autozone has a tb kit for like $5 that has the gasket that you want. Its made by GP Sorensen
