69885, EGR and some vac. line questions.
Posted by Blitzsuperstar, Apr-26-04 04:33 PM
ok, i live in arkansas, and we dont have emissions tests. the "instructions" say to keep a vaccum hose on the EGR, but when i blow in the line it sounds like a leak coming from the inside of it. i dont want to have a boost leak. so would it be ok to just leave it off? or would i have a check engine light on?

next off it says from left to right (vacuum tee's) "Tee 1, Tee 2, Tee 3" you're supposed to hook up your BOV to tee one, yet it looks like its hooked to something, or is it? i figure just tee everything off the egr side.. so comments would be apprieciated.

thanks!!

your egr wont leak, I ran my wastegate, bov, and boost gauge off of the egr vac line.

if you remove your egr valve you will get a super annoying pinging noise and it doesnt sound cool. your check engine will also stay on. you should be ok teeing into the vac line for it but just remove the abs vac line on the back of the intake manifold and use that port for your BOV. then tee into the vac hose on the TB for your ABS. that would be okay for you to do. good luck.
