All by myself.

The car started running rich and wouldn't idle a week ago and was throwing an EGR code.

So I ordered a new EGR (replaced it last year too) and was in the process of removing the old one when the thought occured to me that this is not a high fail item. Maybe I should be looking at the lines feeding the valve.

Lo and behold a vacumn line that was partly hidden behind the supercharger was worn through by the S/C pulley.

A couple of bucks for a new line and I'll be in business again.

I'm so proud.

WTG Pat! Now take the money you almost wasted on a new EGR and treat yourself to something with it.
