Throttle body

I pulled my throttle body off my 93 to give it a good cleaning. I am having a hard time finding gaskets as I want to pull the throttle body completely apart any suggestions ??

I used the Standard Motor Products 2045 set. Price varies widely depending on source.

If you just need a TB to intake a Fel Pro 60655 (about $3 on amazon)

To clean it throughly, I would take the IAC off, clean the pintle with a gentle mist of brake cleaner and wipe it clean. IAC housing should be off too for easier access to the passages. Might as well cut up the IAC housing and to the coolant bypass mod. Don't forget the top plate. DO NOT PUSH THE IAC PINTLE IN OR PULL IT OUT
