for an EGR valve WFT???????

i'm still tossing a code 32 so i figured i'd just replace the valve and hoses but they want 436 for the valve alone

come on guys talk to me here i know that there has to be another way for a heck of a lot less.......

 

mine from zone was around 200.

It blew not long out of warrany. So now I have this litte plate of steel, and it throws a SES light once in a while.

 

You can try to clean it (never been successful), shell out the 200 or so or live with the SES light. As long as you're not getting detonation at part throttle cruising you should be ok.

 

WTF! It was for my iron duke but I was quoted 52 bucks for an egr, why so expensive??

 

Digital valve. Can vary amount of recirculated gas.

 

I need to replace mine just cant afford it but if i set a code 32 once every now and then i dont care.

 

It goes away if you ignore it. No worries.

 

when I got a code 32 I took it off, soaked it in carb cleaner, and it never came back :shrug: Carb cleaner rules, I cleaned my IAC on my truck and it worked like a charm, 1 dollar fix

 

I think soaking in in carb cleaner would fry the electronics in it.

 

gotta love my primative one then I guess

 

Ya i wish i had the old style one i would have replaced mine by now since the old ones are very cheap.

 

*cough* i have a couple of used ones.

 

well i just found one for 240 so i guess thats have to do....

i've been running about 8 mpg for about a year now
and it's dropped down to about 5 as the car is now driven every day.....

the only code i'm getting is a 32 so here i am
aim talk to me about the used ones....

 

<making note to self> next time i need a part that i s really expensive or i can't find, gonna email AM91!

 

5 or even 8 mpg should not be caused by a bad egr! i'm not running an egr and even with my cam and everything else i have, i get 15-16mpg city and 25-26 highway cruisin at 3200 rpms (3.73 gear).

 

yeah, if you're getting only 8 mpg, you have some other SERIOUS problem that you have to look into.

 

5-8 mpg? Take the money for the egr valve and find out what your bigger problems are.

 

yea, I dont have an egr and still getting mid teens in town hotrodding.

5-8 a gallon. Thats worse then a hummer

 

yea were going to run a compresion test this weekend alone with a tune up, breaks & rotors, and i just figured i'd see what else i could do but i'm not willing to put too much $$ into the 6 at this point........ i just found an ls1 with wires & tranny for 2000 so i think i'm just going to go that route but even that will hvae to wait at least 6 months or so

 

tune up might help. definately look into (think about) your cat...maybe its clogged. um....air filter should be part of your tune up... injectors might have problems. o2 sensor could be bad but not throwing a code for some reason. it could be one of several things but there definately isn't any way that you should be having to suffer with 5-8 mpg!
