Yellow/black combo defaults to CTS. Should be on the intake near the T-stat neck

Charred mostly intact one looks like EGR, other is beyond recognition. What color are the wires

theres nowhere on the egr valve to hook it to tho, and the wires are short, like it hooks up to the front of the motor somewhere. the charred wires are black and a tan/brownish color..

They are for the solenoid that actuates the egr. (i'm talking about the melted clip). The two with butt connectors I have no idea about.

The egr stuff is for emissions. It wont make you run any better.
