Anyone know if I need to replace the whole egr valve? Or can I just buy the rubber T coming off of it that goes to the solenoid? vatozone had no clue

 

I would go to a local junk yard 88-96 4.9, 5.0, 5.8 should have that tee I believe its made to the solenoid

 

Not on the solenoid, the one coming out of the valve cover itself. Rubber tee covering the valve top, with a white nipple sticking out both sides to connect hoses, one side goes to the solenoid inlet itself

 

Ok you have completely confused everyone I think. The only thing that goes into a valve cover is the PCV valve.. which has nothing to do with the EGR system. And there should be no T in the vacuum line from the EGR valve to the control solenoid either so your description makes no sense for that either. What year truck and what engine are you working on?

 

Yeah, late night, writing it as I look at the solenoid, it is the PCV, here's the image. Saw the break in the vacuum line, and when I lifted the hose up, the engine idled a lot better. So just need to replace the tee, might as well replace the PCV too, its pretty old I guess. Off a 94' F350 7.5l
