EGR valves, are they interchangable??

Post by mikeetown »

So, i found out what was broken on my K8, and fixed everything. Was very cheap to do all this. But, i found out the main reason for my torque being bad is probably my busted EGR valve.

Are EGR valve from KL-DE's interchangable with K8-DE's???? (ford probe vs mx6 vs mx3??)

Are there any cars I can get this from????

They are the same as long as you keep it OBD-I to ODB-I. I don't remeber if the OBD-II is the same but I know for a fact the OBD-I's are

I know you believe that you understand what you think I said but I'm sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

i got one off a 93 mx3 with only 155,000 km on it( i would take the block but its half missing and i have no garage) and the egr valve from this made it worse??? I wonder if its the egr vacume sensor which i will prob do next. I even cleaned the newer EGR valve with a whole can of carb clean.

Do you have any Check engine light codes?

Just because the CEL is not on does not mean the ECU is not having a code. Try pulling codes and see if it tells you anything.

Your K8 one will bolt on and hook up to your KLDE motor.
