EBPV

Besides the back pressure sensor, what else determines if the ebpv is open or closed? I assume it has to get some form of temp?

The PCM uses the exhaust back pressure value, intake air temperature and engine load to determine the position of the EBP valve during cold ambient temperatures.

I also believe oil temp has something to do with the valve opening and closing.

Thats what I ended up doing to mine. I'd just like to figure out why its staying closed for so long. I know its not sticking. When I plugged it up it appeared that the engine oil temp and intake air temp sensors were good. Thing really doesnt seem to help it warm up any faster anyway. Probably just end up leaving it unplugged
