All it is doing is robbing power. westwindsdiesel 10-19-2004, 11:17 PM Thanks I'll find a way to block it Unit453 10-19-2004, 11:34 PM Go to Lowes or a local hardware store and get....I forget what its called but it is a circular plug with a wing nut on the top. The seal is rubber so simply turn the nut and it seals nicely. I believe it was a 1/12"...I gout it on the first try. westwindsdiesel 10-19-2004, 11:37 PM Sweet thank you for the info.http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley1.gif westwindsdiesel 10-19-2004, 11:39 PM O what did you do with your EGR(pluded in or out) Edited by: westwindsdiesel Unit453 10-19-2004, 11:54 PM Havent touched it. Kinda afraid to. I'm tired of making trips to the dealer to clear my DTC's from the Edge w/Juice combination. I have heard mixed results. No 2 trucks are the same I guess so Maybe I'll leave mine the way it is. What about u? Nick westwindsdiesel 10-20-2004, 12:19 AM I'd tried it both ways no diff. I'll leave it plugged in for now. This is my first diesel and I love it. Just fighting the loud knocking coming from the motor sound like combustion noise. jholly 10-20-2004, 12:42 AM All it is doing is robbing power. Pray tell how? It is just a hollow box tee'd into the intake. Jim | ||
