EGR valve fitting help
Ok, my other thread seems to be getting stale now, so let me start a new one. I'm having trouble with the nut pictured. I sprayed some PB blaster on it and left it most of the day, but it still is very tight. I need to release it. the wrench pictured is as far as I can tell an exact fit at 30mm. My main question is... do I need to push toward the firewall, or pull away from the firewall to loosen it with the wrench???

Nevermind...figured it out.
Re: EGR valve fitting help
Did you get the other fitting (on exhaust) off without issue? For me the upper was easy to remove. I could not get a wrench on the fitting that attaches to the exhaust. I found a short handle crescent wrench (Stanley Brand) at Wal*Mart that would open large enough yet the handle was short enough for me to remove the exhaust side EGR nut.
