It could.
It could.
Egr valve does not cause stalling. it does not open at idle. I would look at oxygen sensor, then check the gas for water. The EGR can be cleaned, but my EGR valve is 10 years old and did not need cleaning. Also look at plugs and wires.
No, a bad EGR valve would cause pinging at driving speeds or stalling at idle. Have you checked the distributor cap? Fuel filter?
Would this cause the car not to start If the EGR VALVE is bad
Yes, the EGR valve, or port EGR
My mechanic claims that a bad Egr can in fact effect the firing potential of certain cylinders by for instance flooding them with too much exhaust.
likely the egr valve and /or sensor is bad
A bad EGR valve in a 2000 Saturn can have several symptoms. The EGR valve can cause misfires, the valve can cause vacuum leak style problems. There could also be an engine knock.
no a egr valve would not make a dead battery. a bad alternator or maybe a bad connection post to battery would make it die ,
yes
It can.
The stalling could be caused by several things. The egr valve could be clogged, or there could be a sensor problem among other things. Clean the egr valve first, then check the computer codes for possible problems.
Even a good EGR valve may cause an engine to stall in hot weather.
