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.)

Re: EGR question

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.
