Filter Changing
I just changed out my air filter on my 04 F350 KR 4x4 (holly cow it really needed it even though gauge wasn't showing filter needed changing).
I was also going to do the EGR, well wasn't able to get it off so job for tomorrow. I was able to turn the EGR a little before I decided to scratch it for today, since working in the hot sun dosn't help. So I turned it back to it regualar position and tightend the two bolts and connected the electrical plugs I had disconnected. Is it safe to say it will still work even though I didn't clean it and turned it a little? Hopefully tomorrow I can get the EGR off tomorrow and clean it, I do have the new gaskets to put on.

Well finally got the EGR out, had a little build up but not much, clean it with carb cleaner (all while using a shop light) since this was around 1:00AM EST, didn't get all the little build up off, looked were the EGR goes and there all around the walls there was build up, at the bottom there was a little, wasn't able to clean out (for now). When I started the truck, it hesiteaded at first then leveled out around 650 rpm idle, since it was a few hours later when I left, can't tell if big amount of black smoke just yet.

My egr in temp this morning was 1040 degrees and I was only doing 60mph, no methonal, derringer on 2 and pedal monster on low sport.
i wonder if any soot going into egr gets burned off.
the FASS egr filter mounts under the air hose intake the…there is plenty of room.
they still haven’t answered my email.
