Here is a cut/paste (not sure if the pics will paste)
May 10, 2005Honda Insight EGR valve cleaningI finished up cleaning the EGR valve on my Honda Insight today. Hopefully this resolves the herky jerky ness during lean burn that the car sometimes displays. If nothing else at least it shouldn't hurt anything, and gave me a good excuse to inhale some wd40 fumes :) (no worries...I have to many brain cells already)
I followed the steps outlines in this thread at Insightcentral.net. There are some arguements about the necessity of the work, but once again the whole "can't really hurt anything" aspect won me over. The only thing that bothered me is nobody posted any good pics....drives me crazy but seems to happen a lot there.
So...pictures of where the EGR valve is located and it's removal below:
Just remove the engine cover at the 3 screws circled in the pic w/ a 10mm socket
Once the cover is off, you'll see the EGR valve in the lower right:
It may take some muscle to get the bolts off (12mm), I let it soak in wd40 for a while...not sure if it helped
Just an overview with the EGR valve off
Just turn it upside down, fill with wd40 (or carb cleaner) and let soak overnight
