Re: newer v6
just make sure the computer is tuned for it. All it does is recirculate the old mixture that wasn't burnt into the engineCar expresses who you are.

if you block it off odd's are your'll set a SES light, mine did but its on for not having a rear O2 sensor so i didnt care.
dont buy block off plates, make your own. just need a drill and 2 peices of metal 1/4" is fine. i used copper gasket maker and havent had any leaks.1998 bright red camaro ,M5 ,Y87 ,stock<br /><br />Originally posted by Rune:<br />If it smells like a turd and looks like a turd, chances are its probably not a candy bar.

Re: newer v6
it resuses the air/fuel mixture to improve fuel mileage and also to cut down on engine tempsCar expresses who you are. If you have a ****ty car, you must be a ****ty person;)<br /><br /><a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/ride/995979\" target=\"_blank\">http://www.cardomain.com/ride/995979</a>

Originally posted by Mr. Logger View PostJust curious, because what you said, sound like there is unburned air/fuel mixture on one side of the engine... Which of course makes absolutely no sense.
when combustion temps reach a certain temp, NOx is created, its a toxic pollutant. the egr lowers combustion temps so that doesnt happen.1998 bright red camaro ,M5 ,Y87 ,stock<br /><br />Originally posted by Rune:<br />If it smells like a turd and looks like a turd, chances are its probably not a candy bar.

Originally posted by Mr. Logger View PostRight. I understand the idea. I'm just trying to figure out why he keeps calling it an unburned air/fuel mixture. It's exhaust gas that gets recirculated.
mine's only off becuase when i put my headers on i couldnt stop the exhuast leak from it, so i just blocked it off.1998 bright red camaro ,M5 ,Y87 ,stock<br /><br />Originally posted by Rune:<br />If it smells like a turd and looks like a turd, chances are its probably not a candy bar.
