You will be much more effective in cleaning if you do. You need to tap the top of the throttle body with a brass hammer to break the seal of the green paper gasket between the spacer and the intake manifold. Before you do this!!!! get a replacement. The factory gasket will probably tear. You can get one by Fel Pro from rockauto.com for 2 bucks. Or, CAREFULLY insert the thinnest paint scraper you can find into the top corner towards the firewall where the the spacer meets the intake manifold. Tap it ever so slightly with a rubber mallet and the seal should break. The Honda bulletin posted indicates to discard the spacer gasket, which I find interesting because the dealerships never have these in stock when I ask for them. Hmmmmm. I'm sure they're getting replaced.
