dumb question

Im warning yall, I am probably about to sound like a complete idiot. I was reading up on an egr valve for a 6.0 for my buddy and it says you can unplug your stock one. does a 7.3 have it? where is it? and is there any harm to un plugging it?

I posted a 6.0 EGR valve issue to a gentleman for his 7.3 and he told me that the 7.3 does not have the EGR system thats why he keeps it around alot less problems. i dont think the 7.3 have one. and thats a good thing

See? Dumb questions don't get valid answers. The only dumb question around here is the one never asked.

Long live the 7.3!
If it was not for PMR's it would have been a perfect run.
