This is a very difficult to get item to get! Many have said soaking the existing one in kerosene for a few days will do the trick, have not done that yet as I am still trying to track down a new one. Wondering what the success rate has been with soaking it in kerosene, also wondering would WD 40 do the same thing. Would hate to ruin the one I have, which is original to the car!

Egr is actually a really cool (literally) addition to engines. My 302 runs so much better with the egr working (correctly). For a hot little beast like these flat 4s egr could really help keep them cooler while cruising.

For a hot little beast like these flat 4s egr could really help keep them cooler while cruising. you know your stuff emery. EGR was a kind of substitute for the advance hose hook up on the EC-B of 74. i believe the EGR also enhanced fuel economy slightly at cruise as well as the cooler running, restoring some of the benefit of the EC-B vac advance operation from distributor. as far as i can tell the EGR on the 75 californians only kicked in really at cruise, steady part throttle. rest of the time it was out of the equation. |
