yea the intake manifold gasket... its stuck on there really good... tried all those.. soaking it with engine degreaser, wd40... i guess i have to use more..

 

I have a set of wide scrapers at work from Cornwell, designed for that, so I am guessing that a putty knife would work as well, it gives you a wider surface, to spread out the "force" so one, you dont gouge the metal as easily, and two, you can really get under there, and pry alot at once

 

there's a gasket remover spray that works pretty well. just let it soak in for a few minutes and it scrapes off really easy. you can prolly get it at any auto store.

 

i actually found that by using simple green, diluted with a window scraper got mine off really easily when i replace my manifold...
