Replace TB gasket?
I had to remove the throttle body to get the fuel pump/alt bracket back in & torqued down (for the fuel pump replace job I'm doing - another thread).
It's original 55k miles & no issues/codes. It looks ok. I'm sure it'll take a couple of days to order thru the dealer they don't stock chit anymore these days and I want to button up the job.
Do these usually seal ok when reused, clean it all up etc.

Probably not best practice, but I reused mine when I removed the TB for cleaning....that was at around 65k and 5k later no issues, not codes....
I now have a new one in hand for next time...
