ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

    How to remove/clean EGR valve

    Hi All

    I want to remove my EGR valve so I can clean it. I've read on here before that there is allot of carbon build-up inside the EGR valve. If this holds true, well I would definitely want mine to be clean.

    How do I remove it? I see these wired-flanged metal clips that secure the rubber piece, but I can't figure it out. I've tried searching , but I can't find details. Thanks All

        Thanks for the links man, I really appreciate it. And for the record, I couldn't find any links. I did look. I was NOT being lazy.

            Wait a second.. This ain't what I'm looking for. I want to remove the EGr Valve, not ports.

              A 10mm socket with a 6-inch extension and 3/8"-drive ratchet and you're gold. Expect a CEL though.

                Even after I replace the EGr? Could I just reset the ecu??

                  Sorry, I forgot the focus of your original question. Yes you can clean it easily and put it back. As long as everything is hooked back up correctly you won't have any codes.

                      A wobble extension and a reg. 12mm (not deepwell) will do the trick since the "hat" sorta extends over the nuts, it's not a straight shot.

                        Yeah, I noticed. I'm just going to use the wobble.

                          Dangit! 12mm and not 10mm. You got me.
