EGR Tube?
« on: March 03, 2008, 05:43:08 PM » |

If i remove the EGR tube from the rear exhaust manifold to the back of the intake will i get a check engine code?
If so, what do i have to do to NOt get a CEL?

you will get a cel for the egr. to remove, some have made use of an egr fooler. variations exist. do your research.

It will not give you a lean code, it will only give you an EGR failure code (32). I pulled mine off long ago.

If you can figure out the resistance provided by the egr (using an ohmeter or multimeter across the sensor while the engine is running), you can pick up a simple resistor to connect and do away with the code.

jusBringit - what code are you refering to : EGR failure (32) or the lean bank 1 & 2 code?
when my CEL was on, autozone pulled the lean bank 1 & 2...nothing else

code 32 for egr failure may take some time to show, the lean bank 1 & 2 may be due to a bad O2. so the code I'm referring to is the one DT mentioned above.

What injectors are you running?
Just putting a resistor in the connector pry won't work. Since that is not how the computer checks to see if the EGR system is working.

my apologies, i thought the sensor directly connected to the computer had utilized a resistor.

You better be  The way it tests to see if the EGR system is working is by... While you are driving down the road at a steady speed (45+ I think) It opens the EGR valve and watches to see if the O2 sensors start reading RICH If they don't move it knows that the system is not working.
