disconnecting egr....

The EGR is located on a small black cylinder (the black cylinder is the valve itself) right between the oil filter housing and intake elbow on top of the motor-just pull the plug. If you cannot find the location of it, first check the links above. Second – under the hood of the vehicle, look direcly to the center of the top of the motor. You will see a large black cylinder sticking out of the top of the motor; it is the largest object front-side of the turbocharger. Direcly in front of it will be a smaller black cylinder, with a 4-wire weatherpack connector on top. Reach down, pull the tab on the backside of the plug, and remove it. This will disconnect the EGR valve. (Ensure that the switch to the vehicle is off before pulling it, the vehicle must be off to ensure the valve is closed. Otherwise, it is possible to lock it in the open position.)


Okay I know what he is talking about at first but wtf is he talking about the second thing to unplug? I cant find it anywhere. That largest cylinder shape I see is the oil filter housing. I see the egr. I can disconnect the first one. But I cant find the second one.

Umm not sure where you got that info from, (it helps to post in the same thread that you are quoting from). As far as disconnecting the EGR, there is only 1 plug.

Is that the plug in between the oil filter and the intake elbow? And what is the difference between that and deleting the system? How is it any different?
