Removing intake manifold gasket
Anyone have any tips to remove an intake manifold gasket that has been baked on? I'm using a gasket remover and an exacto knife. But there are still a lot of bits stuck all over it. Any way to speed this up?

Gunk remover and a box cuter (Be careful not to knick the surface)
If there are still tiny bits still stuck , use fine grit sandpaper

Re: (shortyz)
get some carb cleaner, that will break it down and make it easy to scrape off.
you may want to look into a fel-pro intake mani gasket, they don't stock to the surfaces so you can just reuse it.
