Thank you, sir! Had some quick questions. Is it really necessary to install a block-off plate in place of the EGR valve? Wouldn't simply capping off the vacuum port on the EGR valve serve the same purpose?
Yes it would if your valve stays shut. Some times the old valve floats open on there own due to a weak spring, Sometimes they are stuck open. I see a lot of people take the valve off and put epoxy in the hole where the pintle is to prevent exhaust flowing through the valve and then reinstalling the valve. This gives a stock appearance but the valve wont flow any exhaust. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching!
