Hi. Imreplacing the plenum gasket . How do you get all of the remaining gasket material off where the intake mounts to the heads ?I used gasket remover and a razor but there is still some black residue on the intake. Is this ok ?

 

you want to get that surface as smooth as possible. I had used a wood chissel and gasket remover.

 

Scotch-Brite pads will help get the residue off. Try to get it as clean as possible.

 

yeah, scotch brite will work too.
dont laugh but semen acts like a real good gasket remover.

 

just kidding. i just thought it would be pretty funny towalk in onsomeone whackin offand aiming it at their engine

 

Thanks for the help guys.

 

just be carefull that you dont gouge the surface
