I am not sure about the throttle body gasket. I know the flow tube should be replaced. Your problem may be that the flow tube is plugged up with carbon, which is very common with the Acura egr system. More then likely there is a reason for the throttle body gasket to be replaced. there could be a link between a vacuum leak and the egr system at the throttle body.

The 3.8L engine found in some years and models of Buick cars uses a throttle body to regulate the amount of air flowing into the engine. This throttle body has a butterfly valve on the front which is opened and closed with the throttle cable.
