Throttle body stuck =/

[steebs]

hey guys,

needed to remove the TB so i could get to the IACV, and so i removed the 2 nuts + 2 bolts connectng the TB to the IM....buh the problem is, i cant pull the TB off the IM =/

i tried WD40 on the studs, and no good, i dont wanna dig a flathead in between them as i dont have a spare gasket =[

any ideas ?
its a dc5r

thx in advance,
steven

also it is pretty important to get another gasket, they are pretty cheap. Reason being that if it has even a little slit in the gsaket it can cause air to leak in after the TB and i wouldnt risk it, and yes all you should need to do is tap it with something that wont damage it.

Thanks
