Default Upper plenum gasket...

me and my buddy are going to replace the gasket on his upper intake plenum. is it necessary to take off the coolant lines running to the tb, or can i leave it in place and just move the plenum to the side. same goes for all the electrical...can i just leave it on and move it aside? i know the coolant lines can be bypassed, not allowing it to go into the tb, but we're doing that at another time. thanks<edited><editID>SpeedRicer</editID><editDate>38022.6697800926</editDate></edited>

IT CAN BE DONE BUT IT IS JUST AS EASY TO JUST UNHOOK ALL THAT STUFF.
