What do you OBD2 guys do about the Intake EGR tube? Everyone run it back into the downpipe, or just cap it off?

I did have mine plumbed back into the cat, but currently it's capped. I've noticed no difference between running it capped or routing it back into the exhaust. And my car is a '95 OBD2

I removed the tube and capped it on the intake side... and added a 100K resistor to the egr sensor to keep the engine light from coming on.

Hey bruinbear714, hook me up with a pic of the 100K resistor installed. I need to do the same thing.

Ben at JWT told me to use 68K resistor... haven't tried it yet, though. Have you checked the ECU for stored codes after putting 100K resistor in? MIL doesn't light up for all codes...

Well, 68k - 100k, at that resistance it doesn't matter since its only draining a few microamps...

WD: I have to get a picture of it... probably this weekend when I get some time.

I will be in debt of you do my friend. I wonder if using the rsistor will eliminate the timing retard when removing the EGR? Any thoughts?
