Ok so I have been looking around and it seems no one can get me the egr canister so I would have to special order it but I found I could make my own. Anyone seen this or done this? It looks like with a short peice of pvc pipe and two end caps I could drill and glue a vacum port and be back up and running like new. Im sure this would be cheaper then ordering a 60-80 dollar coffee can no?

I did it that way on my 95 F150 - I used sch40 pipe and end caps, drilled one of the caps out a little smaller than the check valve (used the one out of my bad canister), and epoxied the check valve on. Quick and easy, and still holding a vacuum after 6 months.

I had to cut it out - actually I used a can opener to remove the top, then tinsnips to get to the check valve, then pliers to pull the sheet metal from the check valve. There is a channel in the check valve that the canister top fits into, and I used the pliers to more or less peel the metal top out of the check valve.
