Re: Cleaning The EGR Valve

No, they all dont look like that. Just depends on your cleaning interval. You can either remove the intake manifold and flush it out with some cleaner or take a fine to medium wire cylinder brush and brush it out. Then while the egr is out you can start the engine and run it wide open throttle for roughly 10 second to blow the carbon/soot out of the intake/egr ports. This sound funny but it is how one of the techs on here explained it. If I can find the post I will link it.
