Anyone have any luck doing this on the car?
Long story short, went for the state inspection, put the cat back in etc... and it failed for nox being too high. I know the cat is clean, (haven't used it in 2 yrs) so we tried testing the EGR manually opening it. No stall. I have pulled the upper intake, cleaned it out (boy it needed it!). Pulled the EGR, cleaned it out, verified it works w/ a vacuum pump.
The port on he head looked pretty nasty w/ build up, so I have cleaded it out best that I can, but am concerned about the cooler plate. Do you thing I could get in there w/ some throttlebody cleaner and pipe-cleaner/brushes of some sort? I really hate to have to pull the damn head.
Suggestions?
