Thanks I will upload pictures of the port and gasket and hope you guys can tell me if the gasket needs to be replaced and the ports need to be cleaned. thanks

 

Anyone also know the name of the gasket that is under the cover? I am trying to look online for a replacement. Thanks

you can clean it and re-use.. carb cleaner and toothbrush works for me..

 

Hey Hondakid23, yeah...clean everything up, get all the carbon build up out of the passageways leading to the EGR port. Be careful to note the positioning of the gasket when re-assembling. If ya need some tips on cleaning, there's lots of threads posted on this subject...even in the "DIY" sticky. Just get a coat hanger, a wire brush and a few cans of spray cleaner to dissolve the gunk.....then proceed to get the shit out !

 

Why a coat hanger?

 

Hey man, it's just a simple and readily available improvision to navigate and clear the EGR passageways which have alot of nooks, turns and crevices. You can use whatever you want, but ya gotta break the crud loose somehow !

The coat hanger worked for me.

 

Ooh ok thanks bro.. I was confused thats why I thought the wired brush was for , but thanks for the reply man. Just finished up now
