EGR Solenoid - Carb compatible
I have been searching for quite some time, but need to bite the bullet as I am getting close to hopefully putting one of my cars back on the road.
Unfortunately, I have to have emissions to pass inspection. So I am in need of an EGR solenoid.
Eckler's seems to have the correct one **listed**, but it's on national back order (which I am assuming it will never get restocked). As a general FYI, it's ecklersfirebird[.]com/firebird-solenoid-valve-egr-1985-1992.html part number 75-279426-1.
So I'm wondering if the corvette (1985-90) solenoid that was referenced in a few threads would also work for me. It seems the threads mention TBI for compatibility, I however have a carb setup. I'm just leary of spending that much money on something without having some votes of confidence that it will work.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
