cleaning EGR
« on: 03 August 2009, 09:32:30 »
Got a replacement EGR today.
Going to do the replacement today.
But it looks like it could use a  little cleaning.
How do I clean it?
Do I just spray some carb cleaner into the hole on the bottom of the EGR or do I have to do anything else?

fill it with paint stripper, the good stuff not the watery type one.

Leave it for a while, then wash out, i filled mine 3 times.

I was going to fit a replacement, but cleaning it fixed it!

Fairy Power Spray, not just for cooker's cleans up most things, works really well on Ali parts and Carbs  :)
