Have a misfire/stuttering & been suggested to clean the EGR valve.
Have taken it off but can't dismantle to give it a good clean >:(
Any suggestions PLEASE :'(
-
i have used carb cleaner then a bit of light oil. you dont really need it. blank it off tbh. :y
-
Does it actually dismantle or not?
Where abouts do u spray it :-/
-
dont think its a take to bits item tbh. never really bothered about them, just blank it off.

Its a sealed unit,make a blanking plate of mild steel etc and blank it off,some people just use carb cleaner or soak in petrol to get rid of the carbon build up :y
-
When we unplugged the unit it made no difference to the revs - does that mean the units f*cked & i need a replacement >:(
-
Connect the egr and try disconnecting the maf to see if any difference :y

No, it means you need to blank it off as stated several times above! Leave it connected electrically though or the engine warning light will come on.

How do u know if the egr valve is sticking? :-/

Paint stripper is probably the best cleaning agent.
However, as others have said, blank it off, see if that resolves the issue.
