EGR valve replacement Posted By: hotrodbob38 On: 07-02-2009 @ 14:11:57 Reply | Edit Anyone ever replace an EGR valve on the LT1? I know its on the back of the intake.. YOU HAVE TO BE KIDDING ME.. How do you get your hands in there? any ideas or tips? I appreciate any and all help! 1995 z28 auto..

Unless the diaphram is shot you could probably pull it off and clean it and reinstall. Seafoam works for cleaning the carbon out. --  Posted By: hotrodbob38 On: 07-02-2009 @ 19:36:47 Reply | Top | Edit I have a code 32.. it says egr.. all the hoses look good.. you think if I try the seafoam treatment it will help. The SES light doesnt come on all the time. it will be okay for a few days, then reset itself.

You can always try the seafoam, but unless the valve is open when your doing it it probably isn't going to do anything in that area. -- Posted By: hotrodbob38 On: 07-02-2009 @ 21:40:23 Reply | Top | Edit thanks.. I'll take a look at it sometime early next week.. Im glad I have a few drivers..lol thank you again for your help. Bob
