A malfunctioning EGR valve can definitely lower fuel economy.
yes, the egr valve (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) device is there to help reduce emissions by resending unburnt fuel and harmful gasses back through the cycle. This also helps the engine burn leaner and cooler.
first, check the computer codes. If that doesn't show anything, check the air filter and egr valve.
There is no egr valve on a 95 Honda del sol. I looked all over mine and on the internet, no egr valve. If your emissions are screwed up replace the catalytic converter and have a pro check your timing. Most of the time it is your cat. I am still looking for the answers to bad gas mileage, hard to determine why but many del sols lose that good gas mileage for no apparent reason.
Yes, most definitely.
The EGR is the acronym for exhaust gas recirculation valve. The 1993 Cutlass Ciera does not come equipped with an EGR valve.
EGR is the acronym for exhaust gas recirculation valve. This valve controls the pollutant level given off by the vehicle.
exhaust gas recirculation sensorIt is a sensor that is mounted to the EGR valve. It moniters the position of the EGR valve and sends that info to the ECM.
P0400 - Exhaust Gas Recirculation Flow Malfunction Possible causes - Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) solenoid valve harness is open or shorted - Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) solenoid valve circuit poor electrical connection - Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) volume control valve stuck closed - Faulty Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) volume control solenoid valve - Dead (Weak) battery - Faulty EGR temperature sensor and circuit - Faulty EGR Valve
It doesn't have EGR.
Yes, your car will run without the EGR valve but there could be some side effects. The EGR burns exhaust gasses which inturn reduce the combistion temp. So you may get lower gas mileage and your car may ping (preignition on acceleration). If it pings get the EGR replaced, pre-ignition will destroy the pistons and rods.
The EGR system recirculates dirty unburnt emission gases back into your engine through the intake manifold which decreases performance, but improves gas mileage. You can bypass the EGR valve. Just buy a block off plate from you local speed shop. However, the EGR valve is there to cool the combustion chamber so without it, you will hear a lot of pinging until the motor melts.
