gee thanx for the helpful info on the egr valve guys. I changed it yesterday and I do notice a difference on the milage. Not major but when I get on the pedal for a bit I dont see a major jump in my mpg's. Only 2 knuckle busters while changing it too. lol

did you remove the airbox first? It frees up the workspace quite abit. How black did the old EGR look?

yeah I was in a rush and didnt feel like taking the box out.. I'll say this, next time I will. Its was pretty nasty. the gasket was very brittle. cleaned the section on the block and threw it back on. Did I forget to do anything ?

HAHA alright, yea, when I read
"the gasket was very brittle. cleaned the section on the block and threw it back on
" I wasnt sure if you meant the old gasket or the new valve!
