I took apart the intake on my 99 and was wondering if I can reuse the 3 metal gaskets: - engine to manifold - between 2 halfs of manifold - manifold to throttle body Knowing Mazda, they're probably cost an arm and a leg ;) No idea on the engine to manifold gasket though. |

I hope they can. I've had mine off and back on half a dozen times.

i do occasionally shmear some anti-seize on them just for fun. then I regret it next time I take them off and get that shit all over.

I just know, when I swapped my head after porting it, the the IM gasket was warped and the bead flattened after removal. Once I refit it, the coolant leaked right out of it. No amount of torquing the bolts/nuts would cure it.
|
I just bought all new gaskets. I don't want to chance any more shit leaking.
