Oreo931 Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 Why are you taking it off? It is not necessary to remove when replacing the PCV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keaton85 Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 All you have to do it take off the exhaust tube and your all set. No need to take the EGR off the manifold! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats how I read it anywayHe said that the EGR was spinning on the pipe, if it was spinning while on the manifold the EGR would detach very quickly due to the weight but thats just my guess.

tenn850 Posted March 31, 2007 Report Share Posted March 31, 2007 Yes tap with a hammer. Use a small extension if you don't have a small mallet. The pipe should break free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
