I took my air tube off today and my throttle body gasket fell off.
lol, does the oval gasket go on the throttle body or does it go on the air tube? i cant remember for the life of me. Thx.

That's not possible unless you took the TB off also. ;) The oval gasket makes a seal between the tube and the mouth of the TB. I think when I put mine back on I seated that gasket in the tube and pushed it over the mouth of the TB. The main thing is to make sure it doesn't kink up when you put it back on, otherwise you will have a leak of unmetered air which will cause driveability concerns. I found that it helps to try to push the tube on straight and avoid rocking it back and forth too much when you feed the tube back on the TB.
 
I just did mine i took some 3m adhesive and sprayed it in the grove of the condom and slid it on intake tube then after it sat for 5 min i put the tube back on simple really

Wait. Woah dude. You're only supposed to put a condom on YOUR tube. :lol:
