EGR delete?
Last summer I ordered Doug Thorley Headers for my 99 V10 which has an EGR system, however I didn't specify to 5star nor think of it until I opened the box.:-banghead 5star can write me a tune for no EGR and emissions. Since we use tailpipe emissions I don't see an issue with this. I would however like to cap or remove the system if possible and maintain the original ECU/PCM.
I did contact Doug Thorley and they wouldn't swap them out even if I paid shipping both ways, so now I am trying to find a way around this. :confused: Does Ford use different I/M's for different emissions based trucks, or is a plate and gasket available to remove the EGR system? TIA. |
What I am thinking is capping 9D477 and looping the hoses. Or remove it all and make a template, gasket and blockoff plate for the EGR on the intake manifold.

Let's start from the beginning.
The headers you bought DO or DO NOT have the EGR port? |
The headers do not have the EGR port.
Doug Thorley has them but will not swap even if I were to pay shipping both ways. 5star will write a EGR off emissions tune on top. |

At least the one guy I talked too. I will figure a way around this whole deal though.

Any thoughts or ideas?

Get the tune that removes the EGR, and just leave the non-functioning valve on the intake.
Or, get this for $18.50: EGR Block off / Delete- Expedition, F150, F250, F350, E-Series 5.4 6.8 70802 | eBay |
Perfect, been looking for something like that. Just ordered it too. :-X22

Did you figure out an EGR delete strategy? So far on FleaBay I haven't found a blockoff plate that fits 1999 models.

This part is not compatible with 1999 Ford E-350 Econoline Club Wagon XLT Extended Passenger Van 2-Door 6.8L 415Cu. In. V10 GAS SOHC Naturally Aspirated.
Hence my quandary. |
From the ebay listing:
Ford Truck E350 Super Duty 1 Ton 6.8 L 415 CID V10 SOHC 1999 - 2012 |
FleaBay gave me that when I checked compatibility. I cut and pasted that.
So this is weird... |
I ordered that EGR blocking plate. If a person puts that on and leaves the existing egr valve and vacuum lines there. is it going to set a check engine light?
