Had a look on mine and I only have the 1 vacuum pipe coming off the EGR - not much use i'm afraid...

No worries, thanks for having a look tho.

If I was you, (as per the other thread) I would take the whole lot off, including the EGR and give it a good old clean up. Mine was filthy inside and the EGR wasn't even moving. It doesn't take long and is well worth doing.

Clean up the Jubilees and get them nice and tight when re-fitting it all as some hoses clamp onto plastic pipes which is a bit crap.

Got around to taking the EGR off at the weekend, the hoses didn't seem too mucky but the EGR valve was caked in crud and wasn't moving at all so a few minutes with a can of Gunk and a toothbrush and it looks like new.  Not been out in it since due to electrical problem (that's on another post) but I've dropped a new battery in it today and it's started for the first time in 5 days!!!!!  Didn't feel brave enough to take the intake manifold off (a little pushed for time) but that's on the list for this weekend tho now it's starting ok why bother changing the plugs anyway....................?

Just looked at mine to check all is ok, and there is no pipe at all!

Have tried to find it, but nothing is obvious. Where should the other end of the pipe be??

[DJ Pete]

Please?

[DJ Pete]

Looked everywhere this morning, still can't find it!

This is where the blue/black pipe goes to from the EGR, not sure what the black module is that it goes into the bottom of.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the photo, only I don't seem to have the black box part!

I'll try and post a photo of mine up on here later.

The black box is a solenoid actuator which connects to the ECU.

It has a vac feed and an output to the EGR valve plus a small air fliter type assembly on a stub.
