Removing Gaskets??
Trying To Remove My Tb And Im Gasket And Its Like They Are Glued On!
They Come Off In Little Pieces....if That. Is There A Really Easy Way To Do This Or Just Keep Dick'n Around With My Screw Driver And Paint Scraper?

Be careful what you're scraping with. I think the throttle body is aluminum. You should be scraping with something plastic, they make plastic razor blades. You don't want to end up scratching it too bad or else it will leak with the new gasket on.
They aren't glued on, they're just really thin almost like paper. If it hasnt been taken off before, itll stick due to the years of being squished so tightly.

WELL SO FAR I HALF MOST OF IT OFF. i was abou to buy the IM gasket($8), TB($2) gasket and Exhaust gasket($13) at pepboys and then remembered that ive heard of "performance" gaskets. is this true and if so which should i get. Also would it be a bad thing to use 2 gaskets to increase the length of the runners or is the difference so small its a waste? thanks
