now my egr valve...will it ever end?
well... my CEL came on today while driving in the rain on the freeway , and i figured it was hydrolock , or coming close to it...
so i took it to Advance , they obd'd meh , and lo and behold , its my frigg'n egr valve... its not getting good flow.
they said to take it off and try to clean it with brake parts cleaner.
any helpful tips?

RE: now my egr valve...will it ever end?
lol..i dont know if that was meant to reassure , but i sense an apocalyptic tone there ... which i can deal with...
anyone heard of cleaning an egr valve?? i just want to see if this is going to screw it up worse... i know its already f'd up , but it still runs , so i am hoping not to pay the 100$ for a new egr ...
EDIT :: das , i didnt even see your post , my bad... so youve heard of cleaning it? how much for the used one? i may need it overnighted if possible....

if a new one doent cost that much, u should just replace it instead of taking the chance of messing it up, cleaning it with brake fluid...

Youngstown97Sohc, I'd sell you the EGR valve and transducer for $20 shipped.
