    Default plenum cover question

    hey, i want to take off the plenum cover so that i can clean all the junk out of the plenum and throttle body.

    my question is, do i need to replace any seals or gaskets between the plenum cover and the plenum? or is it just a matter of undoing the 8 bolts on top and pulling it off?

    seen a few threads on here about cleaning it, but none say whether there is a gasket, and if it needs to be resealed, or just put back on after.

    thanks in advance

    Literally you just undo the bolts and pull the top off, there are rubber seals on the bottom of the plenum, but no gaskets or anything.
