When placing a new throttle body to plenum gasket, do you put some sort of sealer (like Formagasket) on the gasket?
The previous gasket had a sealer on it.

Thank you for your help.

You shouldn’t need it if the surfaces of the TB and plenum are super clean. Torque down the bolts each a little at a time.
