Re: EGR question

Yeah, no way to get around it throwing a code as far as I know. Have had an SES light on for the last few months after pulling the AIR and EGR systems--without any problems.

Here is a good step by step site for pulling the EGR

Re: EGR question

You need to remove the EGR system, get EGR block of plates for the manifold, and a 35 mm freeze plug for the intake. Then, either use LS1edit to remove the code, or have it tuned. (Normally during tuning they remove this code.)

Oh, BTW, save the canister, it is worth alot of money! Although the temptation to launch it into your neighbors yard via a 3-man water ballon launcher is very tempting...

Re: EGR question

Re: EGR question

Re: EGR question

There is probably not a fuse for the EGR/AIR system. If there was one and you pulled the fuse it would set of the light because the system would not have any power making it inoperative.
