EGR setup removal.

[stockerJ30]

Hey I am new to the forum and the J30. But that intake is a thing of beauty being defaced by that egr tubing, and the evap canister crap. How can I remove this junk and stop the ecu from throwing a cel. I removed the evap stuff from under the hood of my Dakotas and I had to install a reisitor in the sensor plug. Sure would appreciate the help. Thanks.

The Canister- you might be better off relocating it if you can just for simplicity's sake.

For the EGR, that's a tough call... maybe put a multi-meter on it during its normal operation to determine what it should be? Either that, or look it up in the FSM (link in my sig) and see what it should be for testing purposes. Sometimes they say (if EGR measures between 1k and 3k ohms during operation, it is good). Once you figure that out, a simple block-off plate can do the rest

If you remove anything you will always throw a cel.

The egr tubing can hardly be seen at all when looking at the engine but is most likely the reason you have a cel.

The tubing on the top of the engine is not optional. Good luck and try reading the posts in the forum before asking questions as youre obviously not the first person to ask about common wear parts.

I don't have a cel. And was thinking the tubing at the back of the intake was tied into the egr system, but obviously you answered that. That is the tubing I wanted to remove. Trying to find diagrams of engine and intake. The car runs fine, I guess I need to revert back to the flow chart where it says if it's not broke don't f*** with it. Trying to locate a FSM ebay has a couple but they are not biddable and kinda high. Guess this car is like my Harley, expensive .

sounds like you hate the balance tubes, search the 300zx guys to get ideas to relocate them.
There is a link here somewhere to the FSM

or look it up in the FSM (link in my sig)

No one read my post
