Contradicting EGR Tests
Just bought my first F250 6.0, it is a 2006 with 290K miles on. I am unsure of exactly what maintenance has been done to it, but it does seem to be well maintained. I have been doing a ton of research on common issues and scouring over the truck this past week.
I removed the EGR valve and it was fairly clean (black soot covered, but not clogged), but the EGR valve port in the IM was slightly damp. I suspected a failed EGR cooler, but I am not loosing coolant nor do I have white smoke from the tail pipe. I ran the "bubble" test that Bullet Proof diesel has posted on YouTube, but zero bubbles coming from the the degas bottle.
Any thoughts on how to interpret this?
Thanks in advance
