can't purchase the IAC alone, but I think it comes with the TB gaskets, any good parts store...like NAPPA, just ask. Well, on second thought, you MAY be able to get an IAC from a stealership, check the parts stores to confirm what I believe.

I also need TB gaskets. Especially the one under the plate. I couldn't find one at a parts store last I checked. I left it off. That was about a year ago. Let me know where you find it at. I know a local dealership should have it but I don't usualy buy parts from them.

Purchase a new IAC (just to get the gasket), a complete TB gasket kit (should have the IAC gasket), or make one from gasket paper.

I was under the impression you didn't have to change the gasket if you were careful.

Just make one from gasket paper and an X-acto knife like I did. Use a dab of motor oil on the back of the gasket before bolting it back to the TB to ensure the formation of an airtight seal.

I use ~1/26" thick sheet gasket material so it has some compressability.

I tried Autozone, Advance and NAPA. Nobody had the IAC gasket. Everyone had the throttle body. I ended up using a sheet of gasket material and some silicone sealer
