That governs the amount of EGR gas that goes into the intake. Not a diesel mechanic but I do believe I recall mine was closed when my intake was off the truck along with it...

I wish that were the case...the S&B kit doesn't come with a new retainer spring. The original replacement kit that I ordered from fordpartsgiant apparently does come with a retainer spring. Unfortunately, none of those kits are available from any dealership parts department.

There doesn't seem to be an accessible link there. At any rate, that diagram doesn't appear to be the components I needed. Also, I found a parts supplier in Indianapolis that had stock, so I ordered 2 from them.

Apologies for that oversight. All I did was plug in the part number on Amazon, and that is what came up.

Did you say you already ordered the S&B and it DID NOT come with a new spring?

Here's a few links to cheaper aftermarket pipe kits that includes the clip.

Go on EBay and look for yourself... your cheapest option may be ordering one of these cheaper kits.

That is correct. I looked at several other aftermarket options. I did end up ordering the S&B…correct, it does not come with the retainer spring. I ordered the spring from a supplier in Indianapolis.

I wanna say any picture of that i've ever seen it's always in that position. I dont recall mine being closed when I did my SPE CAC install.

Oh boy... sure does... especially when going up the hill I climb every time I drive to work... I pulled the metal tube out, cleaned it and the silicone boots inside real good, asked my wife to get her hair spray stuff, applied it to the tube AND the boots, installed it, let it sit over night and it hasn't come apart again.
