If petrol, blank it, but leave the unit in place, as the ECU looks at a position sensor inside.

If a TD, you can blank, but I'd clean it up and try to restore it.

Not sure about DTi

blimey wouldnt have thought blanking egr would make eny noticable difference but it sure has, must have been leaking passed more than i thought.and no vibration from front end much smoother passed 100 mph.
