Question:

Mazda MX-3 EGR Valve?

Im putting in a new EGR Valve for my 94' Mazda MX-3 V6 1.8L and i was wondering if anyone had a guide or some special tips on what or what not to do...Thanks.

Answer:

it only has 1 plug and two bolts.......you dont need a special care during assembly just dont over tight the bolts
One thing people don't do is bring the old EGR Valve with them to match it up with the new one before leaving the auto parts store. I would suggest doing this FIRST, if it is possible to get a ride to the parts store. I know you can't do this if the MX-3 is your only car lol. Be careful and take your time, do not rush and take digital pics before job is started so you know how or where things were durring re-assembly. And I do hope it is warm wherever you are doing this job,lol. Good question!
Most of the time its not the EGR Valve, this something else. Do you no what code or codes were found ? I've seen the O-ring missing on the PVC valve alot and this trips a EGR code, Check the PVC Valve for the O-Rings or when the engines ruining open the oil cap and check to see if theres a large vacuum there. If so the O-ring is missing.
