EGR Issues
#12
Not sure if it will run fine without it. Computer looks for input from Coolant temp and other sensors to operate EGR. Also runs diagnostic on EGR to see if its operating properly. Throws DTCode and Malf Ind Light if not. Won't pass emissions test if your state has them. I understand the EGR gas helps keep the combustion temp down.

i already told him it would fail emissions dont think hes too concerned and i am an emission inspector i fail numerous cars for lack of egr valve you can order replacement manifolds that delete EGR valves all together yes a code will be thrown he already has said code but again the only function of an EGR valve is to recirculate exhaust gasses back into the firing cylinder to reduce NOx emissions... your car will drive without one and if ya wanna be really cool you can go down to your local programmer and get your computer reflashed and delete the OBD2 monitor for the EGR valve which will also eliminate the check engine light and if the test in his town is purely OBD2 he will pass just fine

yeah i just replaced the engine in my 95. and for what ever reason i took the part of the egr that gos into the plume off, and now i can't get the holes to line up to put it back on lol. but i live in IL and they dont test my car 95 and later. something about the tester coast to much to test for those cars IDK.
anyway what type of shop would i have to find that could flush my Compter? and i really like the idea of just taking it "egr" off think I'm going to look into headers

So who has a good EGR delete write-up/pics, and computer tune details so the SES doesn't come on? ;-) TIA
the egr valve on our car is an electronic EGR valve cleaning the inside usually doesnt work more then likely you need to replace it but if you want you can try to clean it out its located on the top front drivers side of the motor i beleive 3 bolts and the electrical clip and it pops right off i replaced mine about 3 months ago took 5 minutes i attached what u are looking for down at the bottom /// sorry its a link cant figure out how to get the damn pictures to work ....
