gave that a bash but i revved it whilst spraying

no change

warren g's tutorial shows the blanking plate on the inlet and the egr just left sitting

tried that and it revved

blanked the egr and left the inlet open

idled well but sounded like a v8 when driving.

then when stopped at lights started to rev

might have to bite the bullet and get a new egr

Give this a bash:

Open the airbox and spray carb cleaner up the hole while someone revs it

no the valve was taken off completely

Oh and when you sprayed carb cleaner in before did you have someone else revving the car at the same time?

Im really not sure bud :lol: When I was told about it the person didnt say

eml says egr mate

ive done a paper clip test

is the butter fly on the block or actually on the egr as i didnt see one when the valve was off

Could be the idle air control valve too

Strip off the stuff round about it, spray carb cleaner on it and clean round the butterfly valve, should be choked up with brown/black gunk

getting high revving and an eml when idling

was told to blank off the egr, tried that no change
was told to clean the egr, sprayed carb cleaner in it and gave it a quick rub but still getting the problems

how am i supposed to clean it?
or will i need a new one?
