recently when i rebuilt my engine... i cleaned all my intake parts and what not... and while doing so, i found the EGR tube in the intake COMPLETELY blocked.. as well as that tiny ass tube off the egr valve..

just something to keep in mind next time you have your intake off... it makes for a happy car to clean all that shit out...

and ps... its not easy cleaning that tiny tube on the egr valve itself.... i had it soaking in concentrated carb clean for 3 days.. and i still worked my ass off to clear it out..

has anyone else noticed this? or was it just because my car was burning 2 quarts in 50 miles?
