TBI issues

Hey guys,

Just pulled my intake manifold because the gasket was leaking and glass bead blasted it. I was about to rebuild my TBI when upon inspection I found it to be really clean. I'm thinking about just replacing the manifold to tbi gasket and calling it a day.

Are there any common seals/ gaskets/ anything that fails commonly enough that I should replace on this TBI while it's out?

If the throttle valve is not sticking or binding..and the car starts and idles fine, nope..

The throttle plate and cylinder are clean as a whistle. I had an intake gasket leak so my idle was off. Also replacing all vacuum hoses, and O2 sensor with the install. Fingers crossed.

It could also be a IAC problem if your idle is not correct.
