Shouldn't it be the other way around about reusing the gaskets? I would think the UIM/LIM gaskets would be more reuseable than the TB/IAC/EGR. Don't those gaskets seal themselves after a little while with heat?
Correct me if I'm wrong.
Yep, you're wrong. With the few cleanings I've done, I've reused the TB/IAC/EGR gaskets, and replaced the intake manifold gaskets once.

i'm with mark...i clean my manifolds once every month,(that its on the road) and i've only replaced the upper/lowers once..tb twice and thats it
