I've never pulled a throttle body off before, and am planning on doing so to clean it up, as well as the IACV. Any pointers from anyone who has done it before would be great. I've seen in the repair manuals in the stickies that there are some gaskets that should not be reused (I know that you shouldn't reuse any gaskets ever) but which ones and how many will I need? Tryin to save some dollars here by doing stuff myself instead of having the dealership do it. Any other big "gotchas" for removing the TB? Has anyone has seen a how-to that I've overlooked? Sorry for the 21 questions...

its basic, just remove the throttle cable, take out some bolts, your intake, and I think the coolant lines for the IAC. Ive reused the gasket for this before, no issue, just look and see if it is really bad before you do reuse.
