Hey man, just want to let ya know you did a VERY good job of explaining the EGR system in a way it made a LOT of sense. I'm about to take my A8 ASE test and your video cleared up a LOT of confusion!
I have a 2005 grand prix gt non sc. I'm getting a p0404 code. Do you think that is probably the egr valve itself? I was going to pull it off and clean with some throttle body cleaner. Any other suggestions?
I liked all your videos. Please i need your help. What could cause rpm to go high on park and neutral? what could cause fuel rail pressure sensor in high rage? Could leak exhaust manifold causes it, cause have changed the oxygen sensors, throttle body sensor. please, help me out. My car is Kia carnival 2005 2.5L petrol engine automatic. obd codes are p1169, p0056, p0156, p0030. Thank you for your help.
I have '95 Roadmaster that is having a little trouble passing NOx. W/ the EGR off the car I can hand vacuum pump it up and it holds as well as when I place it on the car. But, when I let the car idle it wont pump up w/ the hand vacuum. Is there something going on in the intake for this odd behavior? I cleaned the EGR w/ Seafoam before. Thx
So im confused on my k24 accord i cleaned the entire egr from the intake the passageway on thr side but where does the hole lead to inside the cylinder head does it just get its feed from / thru the valves into the head than the egr?
I have 2.2 camry and can't fix egr p401. changed modulator, checked vsv, vacuum lines, egr valve, gaskets, throttle body, everything code goes off briefly sometimes but can't get rid of it. I've rested everything by the service manual and still nothing.
On a good running car we have exhaust gases and pcv gases and gasoline vapor going back into the intake manifold to be burned with fresh clean fuel now I see why the intake valves get caked deposits all over them and clogged up the engine intake system and requiring intake valves cleaning
I've heard claims that removing EGR can increase engine performance and improve longevity, since there is no carbon buildup on intake valves. Do you know if this is true ?
I do not think is true at all. The purpose of the egr valve is to reduce knock in engine from extreme temp in cylinder. You can make engine run richer to cool cylinders but that increases fuel economy and drecreases engine performance. I got these info from general motors ASE 8 guide.
has anybody tried to split egr lines one going to intake and other behind airfilter so the gases going though carburator and see any milage increase difference
You have a stepper motor under dash usually one on dr side and one on passenger side which switches from your dash to your air vents and floor hope that helps
wait this egr system goes agaist everything ive learnt about cold air intake if my warm gaes are goin in whats the point of cooling the air before it goes in im confused now
inert gas enters combustion cylinders making less room for air by a certain % that still allows oxygen to enter, less oxygen means less heat produced, keep in mind egr opens while around cruiseing speed and is mainly meant to decrease nox emissions. egr is win win.
Can you or anybody help please, my EGR has both vacuum and motorised built into the one unit, I did a smoke test from the intake and smoked leaked between the EGR and the EGR Cooler so I thought, so I ordered a new gasket and replaced it in two hours. Did the smoke test again, same spot. Removed EGR and EGR Cooler and did the same test, smoke coming out of the hole which is there for atmospheric pressure to allow the valve to move freely, test the EGR with vacuum tool and it hold pressure. Ordered new EGR and it does the same, ordered another EGR and does the same, is this normal or does the supplier have a faulty batch? ruclips.net/video/EvBClnmCBNs/видео.htmlsi=SetU0ngqPGWUK-tK Car is Mitsubishi Triton MQ 2015 127 000km fault is when I drive and come to a stop rpm drops to 625 and goes back to 650. On idle it happens intermittently, when AC is on and cycles and turns off RPM drops and back up everytime.
Isreal Perez what is the ECU? Is it a computer? Also my Ford v-10 has a vacuum diaphragm EGR with the vac line on top but no solenoid or ECU but I do have a DPF pressure sensor. How come?! Maybe I do have an ECU ??
Yes, but you need to delete it from your software as well. Reason being you will get no pressure reading or some value that the ECU will think there is a problem and will give you check engine light or other dashboard error.
Modern cars are garbage, unnecessarily complicated, cars with a carburetor and mechanical distributor runs just fine and can be fixed with simple and cheap parts in the road by youself, later on was a great improvement was the implementation of basic fuel injection and electronic distributor, those cars runs forever, after that they are overloaded with unnecessary valves, sensors, computers, 600 hoses under the hood GDI is good for car racing where they disassemble the engine between races but is complete garbage system in a street car, modern cars are expensive to fix, require special equipment, tools, software, etc. Garbage garbage garbage but is the way the cars market move in this days.
So you are talking about what the EGR system does, not how it does it. Big difference. You have no idea how it does it specially the electric stepper motor type. It is easy to talk in general. Yea I can do that too. Let me ask you straight forward direct question and I assure you, you will not answer it. Lets see how much you actually know. Explain in details. 1. what exactly triggers the sensor wire to send signal to the computer and exactly how that trigger works. Clearly explain it. And then what is it that you call signal? It is not some sort of whistle, or yelling, he we need some shit in here...? 2. What is reference 5 volt wire, why 5 volts? what are these things made of anyway and how do they look, their shape, size, distance, configuration …? 3. Why does so called signal wire and this reference 5 volt have their own ground wire separate from body ground anyway? Show in drawing how exactl;y these things look like and their physical relationship to what is inside the valve body. 4. How does the signal control related, designed, rand have any elationship inside the valve. Show schematics and clearly explain what happens? You don't have to explain how the computer does it. I won't put you through that. That would be unrealistic. This is called "How EGR system actually works". Now try it.
At last someone showed me where the vacuum hose from the EGR valve goes. It is missing on my car for a long time now. Very useful as usual. Thank you.
Ismaels General Mechanic In San Bernardino is a great mechanic. He taught me this

Good luck on ur ASE test!
Studying for my A8 test too!
DPFE sensor is also known as the Delta Pressure Feedback Sensor. Hope this helps!
Correct me if im wrong. When throttle plate was partially closed.. Intake vacuum will increase around 20 inch hg.
Good show. Diagrams were great.

Is the exhaust scavenged before it hits the cat or after it leaves the cat? THANKS!
Definitely before I suspect it’s pulled up thru the valves
Look fw 4 part2. Tnx man!
kiddie kode r 4u 2 wtf lol omg fu dumbass

Sounds like it's time for a 3S-GTE swap instead of the 5S-FE!

Hi dear sir ur my great master ☺🙌
Thank You.
How can exhaust heat reduce manifold heat?
has anybody tried to split egr lines one going to intake and other behind airfilter so the gases going though carburator and see any milage increase difference
Are you an independent technician?
Hey ratchets and wrenches, I have a 2000 mustang Gt (similar to yours) .. do you know why my AC only comes out through defrost? Thanks!
You have a stepper motor under dash usually one on dr side and one on passenger side which switches from your dash to your air vents and floor hope that helps
Same with mine only through the defrost I have a 99 GT
check vacum to acuators.
I also get a random 171 map code. leak somewhere? I've checked the whole egr system except throttle body gasket and manifold gaskets.
Can you do a video on a ford EGR (ESM)
Spot on.
hey i have a 1998 ford escort but i have a hose from the egr that is not plug in to nothing i don,t know where it go
Lejuan Rhodes should be a vacuum line...
wait this egr system goes agaist everything ive learnt about cold air intake if my warm gaes are goin in whats the point of cooling the air before it goes in im confused now

my 98 pathfinder has egr/ vacuum modulator/ and purge valve need help

Wow ur smart
can you just block the egr off.
Yes, but you need to delete it from your software as well. Reason being you will get no pressure reading or some value that the ECU will think there is a problem and will give you check engine light or other dashboard error.

so putting hot exhaust gas into the intake is supposed to cool combustion? whatever...
Not enough clear for beginners.
I fking hate this thing.

Now try it.
You must be a boomer, how long did you want the video to be.
