Ok I'm trying to get my car to pass smog.
92' KAde
ecu said egr was bad so I replaced it. Set the timing back to stock.
check eng. light turned off so I took it back and got it tested again. The light came back on durning the test. :faint:

Then I took it to the local shop and they said that the egr is good but it's not getting any pressure from the manifold.
I have a obx header. Is that my problem. The only thing that didn't fit right was the smog fittings, but they did go in.
This is herting my head.
Can someone please tell me that that I don't have to take the header back off and put the stock mani. back on.
Thank you,
Dave

the hard lines out of the manifold. One goes to the egr. I can't remember where the other go's.
I'm about to say screw it. Make it non-op, trailer it to events and just drive my truck every day.
Though it would be nice to drive it on the street all legal like.
Ohwell I guess I know what I'm doing this weekend.
It wasn't really hard to put it on. Shouldn't be hard to take it off.
Thanks man
Dave

Just FYI..the egr needs a certain amount of backpressure to work properly..the header may be interfering
