Alright, I can't get my gasket off of my intake manifold. I got some of it off with a screwdriver and a hammer, chipping away piece after piece, but i have two more gaskets to remove before i can put it all back together. Is there an easier way to get a gasket off?

honestly, I probably did it poorly...I used a dremel with sanding attachment...that's the only damn thing I could thing of, and I had tried razor, gasket remover, putty scraper with hammer...the dremel took it off quick, left some visible imperfections, but it felt smooth, and at that point, it was good enough for me

if you have a die grinder you can buy scothbrite gasket removal or

cookie disks for it to clean off gaskets.
