On EFs and ELs the EGR actuator is located behind the windscreen washer bottle and is connected to the rear of the upper manifold.

Cool. So is it simply a matter of removing the washer bottle to access?

On that website they refer to 'Air Injection' as part of emission control. I'm glad to see Martin has the environment at heart :D

If you ditch the EGR system, then be prepared to have the motor lean out at cruise, and then burn valves, etc ..... :shock:

Cheers


Why must people give false information and scare people? A lean maxture @ cruise WILL NOT, NO WAY, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, NO QUESTIONS ASKED burn out valves.

All it will do is save you fuel. :shock:
