It does not help any EGR related problem. The updated turbo drain tube helps the oil flow in the turbocharger.....

Welcome to the best Ford truck forum on the net! See- the little guy with the sign agrees. Seriously welcome aboard, lots to learn and many helpful members. Just don't bring up Hot Shot secret additive or a small war will ensue

I hate to do it, but here goes. I was trying to follow some of the other posts on EGR problems and read something about this Hot Shot additive. Does this keep the EGR system clean or at least cleaner? and if so, where can I get it?

i don't think hotshot secret helps the EGR system (maybe a little) it's used mostly by people with injector issues as our trucks use oil to fire the injectors and this is a oil additive. you can get it from lubricationspecialties.com
