I've done it recently, you won't need a gasket, just don't damage what's there. But an egr valve gasket wouldn't hurt, just be careful you might be able to reuse it. Also you tube search "egr port clean eric the car guy" the vid is specifically on a f22b. He has some of the best diy's and generally they are on the f22b. And just get some cleaner, I use brake cleaner, others will day use carb cleaner. Brake cleaner is more caustic, especially to seals, your call.

That's the cd5 motor right? When I cleaned the egr ports on mine I didn't need any new gaskets... One thing I will say though is to be carefull when removing the injectors.. you don't want to loose any of those o rings or seals.. I lost one and had to go to the dealer and pay five bucks for one. Luckily the dealer had 2 in stock.. other than that the job is pretty easy and straight forward

Yes, the f22b is in the cd5.

i have the f22a in my ride and i did the egr port cleaning in the diy section. my car requires plugs. you must drill them out and then clean out the carbon build up, the put the new plugs in. never worked on the f22b so idk how different it is.

When I did it, I changed all of the o-rings and gaskets for the injectors since the car is old. Just to avoid any possible future problems. It didn't cost too much and while I am there, might just well do it.
Did you notice any performance gain?
