geo metro had a problem with the egr valve going bad causing the # 3 exhaust valve to burn, which could cause a lack of power in the engine performance. if this exhaust valve was burnt due to a faulty egr valve the new egr valve could have gotten clogged again causing a check engine light to reappear.
