Start at 4:50 if you’re only looking for direction new gasket/seal should be installed. There is a discrepancy it appears when it came out the seal/gasket was facing opposing direction. But I’m choosing to use the ‘reinstall’ direction because the uninstall could have been a recording mistake. .
Question: I recently replaced my valve covers and reassembled my engine. But the EGR tube doesn't seat all the way in. Would this be a good cause of a P0300 code?
Informative but showing which way the tapered side faces would helpful. I've seen videos with tapered end facing firewall, flat end facing plenum and opposite installation as well.
+kattoa159 Thanks for watching! You can do that to help clean out the carbon build up, but sometimes it will have to be replaced if it is too far gone. 1aauto.com
My EGR tube was gloved up bad I clear it out with cab cleaner and used a drill with a wire brush and cleaned it out. Btw it’s hard to install the tube back on.
+billy blades At this moment, the closest how-to video we have to your request is for this vehicle, which is very similar to the one you have. The steps may not be 100% the same, but should contain an adequate amount of information necessary for accomplishing this task

Nobody ever takes the time to dhow how the blue tube ring goes on the egr tube. Smooth side towards the intake or the side with the groove in it towards the ijlntake ?
Don't do it this way, too much work. You don't need to remove the hood, cowl plastic, wiper arm assembly, hood shocks, way too much overkill A1 Auto, shame on you. You only need to remove the Cowl Body Arm going across 4 bolts. And do not need to reach behind to remove the egr tube from the pump.
Dude share your secret then. Right now I have the cowl, wiper system, and cross beam off the car and for the life of me cannot get to the backside bolt on the EGR closest to the motor.
+69 Dodge Charger Thanks for checking us out! If there is a smooth, metallic side and a composite side, the metallic side should be installed facing out, meaning toward the exhaust manifold. Hope this helps! 1aauto.com
@@1AAuto I was going to ask about the rubber one that goes on end of tube at the intake manifold also! Does it have to go a certain way! Just want to make sure I do that right because it’s leaking! Thanks for info and good mechanics for describing things!

Watched your video and fixed my air leak no mechanic needed. Can’t tell you hope grateful I am you guys make the videos you do
If you’re just changing the blue o ring, can you just pop it out without unbolting the Egr tube itself?

Caught that to
How did you reach the bolts on the bottom of the tube? I've tried and I can't seem to reach them.
Can you change the tube gasket on the back without taking everything apart?
Is it necessary to remove the hood? Can it be done without removing the hood?

Man I came to see how the gasket on the egr tube was inserted but seem to skip that part lol
+Manuel Gonzalez Thanks for the feedback!
Shoot me too lol

Can you clean the EGR tube with a carb cleaner or does it have to be replaced?

So does the top gasket slide all the way back or on the front of the tube ? It looks like you slide it all the way ?? Thanks
How long this job took in real-time? Shop had my car 7 hours
Do you have a video for the 5.7L V8?
Is this way of accessing it the same for chargers and magnums?

I got a leak right there where the seal is, is there a Bolt or anything to keep it in there tight or is my tube bad?

Replace de seal man, if the vacuum leak is right between the egr tube and the plenum
Is it in the same location as a 2.7L?
Lawd! TIL you gotta take the hood and the windshield wipers off to change the EGR valve.
yep because they get paid by the hour so this is why my self would of just looked from under the car and reached up to the valve
no u dont have to it's always off in every video
@@mikestock3795 so I can lift the car and get under it to unbolt the egr pipe?
@@mikestock3795is it easier to get to from under the car?

Does the gasket go a certain way or both sides of gasket the same?
