EGR Replacement
Well I did my EGR on my 86 today. Didn't know exactly what to take apart to get the upper intake off so I started taking the lower runner bolts off. After I got stuck there I looked it up and realized that my gaskets were the only thing holding my upper on. So I put the bottom back together broke the top free. :)
Replaced my EGR which was easy once I knew what I was doing. Put it all back together and now I have a vacuum leak. :cuss :banghead: I think the leak is the 9th injector <cold start injector?> I will find out later. If it is not the injector it is the base of the runners. Drivers side twards the front of the car.
What do I need to remove to get all the bolts from the bottom of there runners? I got them all loose except one that looks like it is behind the fuel rail. I hope I don't have to tear it apart but incase I might I figured I would ask how to do it so I don't mess up something else. Was my first experience with TPI. Man I miss the old style carbed intakes when it comes to EGR's :yesnod:
