should I replace the gaskets when I do my vacuum hose job?

They're all metal right? I reused them when I took off the throttlebody to do the plugs and wires several years ago... Should I get some new gaskets?

Thanks!

They were originally paper and mazda upgraded to metal. If yours are metal and don't seem damaged I wouldn't bother with new ones. Its up to you.

Whenever I've reused a metal gasket, I spray it with copper coat. I've never had a problem. This includes the headgasket on my old motorcycle engine.
