I like to use some misc products.... go to the kitchen or buy one if you don't want to mess one up and get one of those long, flexiable cake knives. Make sure that it is metal (usually stainless steel). You can use that to scrap off the gasket. It is strong (cuz of the steel) and very flexiable so it won't damage anyting. Also, get a can of Carb Cleaner. It will clean off dirty parts that you didn't even know that were dirty or could be cleaned. You can also use a old rag and some gasoline. Gas and Carb cleaner are the best stuff invented. I use this stuff all the time. It is true that Carb cleaner leaves a small oily residue, if you don't like that...you can use good old break cleaner also. It is almost the same stuff with out the oil stuff. Hope this helps ya out.
